　　当你放弃探索，人生就结束了　　朗读：Victoria　　Romain Rolland once said:　　罗曼·罗兰曾说：　　"Most men die at twenty or thirty;　　很多人在20岁、30岁的时候就死了，　　thereafter they are only reflections of themselves，　　一过这个年龄，他们只不过变成了自己的影子　　for the rest of their lives they are aping themselves,　　此后的余生不过在模仿自己中度过，　　repeating from day to day more and more mechanically and affectedly what they said and did and thought and loved when they were alive.

"　　日复一日，更机械，更装腔作势地重复他们有生之年的所作所为、所思所想、所爱所恨。
