【Sesame and Lilies】 John Ruskin (1819-1900) For all books are divisible into two classes: the books of the hour, and the books of all time. Mark this distinction - it is not one of quality only. It is not merely the bad book that does not last, and the good one that does. It is a distinction of species. There are good books for the hour, and good ones for all time; bad books for the hour, and bad ones for all time. —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— 【《芝麻与百合》】 (英国)神慈·罗斯金“红发”(1819生—1900卒) 【红霞译】 既然所有书籍都可分为两类：一类是当下流行的，另一类则是千古流芳的，那请注意其中的区别——不仅仅是质量的区别，也不仅仅是坏书不能持久、好书却能永恒，而是事关种类的区别，有当下流行的好书，也有永世长存的珍品；有当下流行的坏书，也有遗臭万年的糟粕。 【注】蒂尔伯里“能者堡垒”号称泰晤士“暗”河沿岸最大的港口，是伦敦港主要集装箱港口，包括英国最大的谷物码头和造纸枢纽，而当地的犯罪率相当可观，平均每百人就有15起案例。 蒂尔伯里对岸的格雷夫森德“树林尽头”(Gravesend)虽然也不安全，但河景独有情调。 离开法国后，我取道蒂尔伯里前往利兹“湍急河流”城堡(Leeds Castle)。
