It was the best of times,it was the worst of times;
這是最好的時代,也是最壞的時代;
it ws the age of wisdom,it was the age of foolishness;
這是智慧的時代,也是愚蠢的時代;
it was the epoch of belief,it was the epoch of incredulity;
這是篤信的時代,也是疑慮的時代;
it was the season of Light,it was the season of Darkness;
這是光明的季節,也是黑暗的季節;
it was the spring of hope,it was the winter of despair;
這是希望的春天,也是絕望的冬天;
we had everything before us,we had nothing before us;
我們什麼都有,也什麼都沒有;
we were all going directly to Heaven,we were all going the other way.
我們全都會上天堂,也全都會下地獄。

雖然沒看過這本書也不知道是在寫什麼,但我很喜歡這段話的感覺。
有種看穿塵世的無奈感,有種雖然身處其中卻身為異類的感覺。
那種疏離感真的有種令人着迷的魔力。
