關於我自己

我的相片
在時代夾縫中成長,經歷過難以想像的艱辛歲月,見證了半世紀的風雲,進入過色彩絢爛的古代文化世界,遨遊過西方廣闊的思想天地,宇宙六合,俱在心靈重現宏偉的圖景。一生堅守的信念,源自內心深處:確信愛與自由,比一切重要。自由,是精神超越的必要條件。愛,不論愛人與被愛,生命才顯示色彩。沒有愛與自由,漆黑一片,生不如死。一生未能忘懷的,是托爾斯泰的《戰爭與和平》。一生的摯愛,永遠埋在心底。一生追求的,是天上的雲彩。 Living in continuously changing times, I have been through a bitter period of life. I have seen the changes that went through in this century. I have entered into the magnificent world of Chinese Classic and Literature, and I have traveled through the plains of the West in my heart, this beauty is once again reborn. My principles that I bear in mind every moment comes from within my heart: the power of love and freedom are most important and towers over the other things in life. Freedom is state of mind which we all have to overcome. Love - no matter if you are being love or in love, the world seems much brighter, happier. Without love and freedom, life would be like blackness, living as though dead. One of life's most memorable moments was when I read Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace. The person I love most in this world would always be there, deep down in my heart. Chasing after those moments in life, is like chasing the clouds that drift across our skies.

I am defeated all the time ; yet to victory I am born.

天下多故,無風起浪,人心惶惶。
一代文學大師 Harold Bloom 也按捺不住,在今天的紐約時報,發表 Out of Panic, Self-Reliance , 提出自救之道,引用愛默生推陳出新的名言:I am defeated all the time ; yet to victory I am born. 鼓勵國民自強不息,在歷史中尋求生存的智慧,不必慌惶失措。令自己安靜下來,方能守住分寸。他很認真說:給神在你心中一個位置。這是重生之源。仁人之言, 藹如也!
研究文學不必風花雪月、扯關係而自吹噓。有淑世的關懷,文學方能有生命。布魯姆主張正視經典,並非為了在現代大學謀飯吃,他的確有心。
世上本無事,庸人自擾之。與其蹂躪自己,到不如開啟心扉。
