^“

We are all alone, born alone, die alone, and—in spite of True Romance magazines—we shall all someday look back on our lives and see that, in spite of our company, we were alone the whole way. I do not say lonely—at least, not all the time—but essentially, and finally, alone. This is what makes your self-respect so important, and I don’t see how you can respect yourself if you must look in the hearts and minds of others for your happiness.

我们都是孤独的，孤独出生，孤独死去，尽管有《真爱浪漫》杂志的陪伴，我们总有一天会回顾自己的生活，看到尽管有伴侣，我们一路上还是孤独的。我不是说孤独——至少，不是一直——但从本质上，最终还是孤独的。这就是为什么你的自尊如此重要，如果你必须依赖于他人的心灵和思想来寻找幸福，我不明白你如何能够尊重自己。
