在过去24年的大部分时间里,大主教约瑟夫·拉辛格(Joseph Ratzinger)每天早晨从他公寓出发步行去工作,穿过梵蒂冈围墙,走过圣彼得大教堂前的黑色鹅卵石广场。有时候,记者会拦下他询问近期一些关于罗马天主教会内的争论,他会亲切聆听这些问题,然后平静地回答。然而更多时候,拉辛格独自一人看向里面,陷入思考之中。
For the most part of the past 24 years, Archbishop Joseph Ratzinger has been walking from his apartment every morning to work across the Vatican Walls past the black Cobblestone Square in front of St. Peter’s Basilica. Occasionally, the reporter stopped him and asked about some recent controversies concerning the Roman Catholic Church. He would hear these questions cordially and then calmly reply. More often, however, Razinger looks alone and falls into thought.
