这世界上或有想在沙基或水面上建造崇搂杰阁的人,那可不是我。我只想造希腊小庙。选山地作基础,用坚硬石头堆砌它。精致,结实,匀称,形体虽小而不纤巧,是我理想的建筑。这神庙供奉的是“人性”。——沈从文《习作选集代序》 It is not me that there are people in this world who want to build a noble house on the sand or on the water. I just want to make Greek temple. Select the mountain as a base, with hard stones piled it. Exquisite, strong, well-proportioned, small but not delicate body, is my ideal building. This temple is dedicated to “human nature.” - Shen Congwen “anthologies election sequence”
