    Conchis seemed to me, no expert, to play as if there was no barrier between him and the music; no need to ‘interpret’, to please an audience, to satisfy some inner vanity. He played as I suppose Bach himself would have played – I think at a rather slower tempo than most modern pianists and harpsichordists, though with no loss of rhythm or shape. I sat in the cool, shuttered room and watched the slightly bowed bald head behind the shining black harpsichord. I heard the driving onwardness of Bach, the endless progressions. It was the first time I had heard him play great music, and I was moved as I had been by the Bonnards; moved in a different way, but still moved. Once again his humanity rose uppermost. It came to me as I listened that I didn’t want to be anywhere else in the world at that...

    ‘I am interested in anthropology. May I measure your skull?’ He took my permission for granted, and I bent my head. As he gently pinched it, he said, ‘You like books?’He seemed to have forgotten, but perhaps he hadn’t, that I had read English at Oxford.‘Of course.’‘What do you read?’ He wrote down my measurements in a little notebook.‘Oh … novels mainly. Poetry. And criticism.’‘I have not a single novel here.’‘No?’‘The novel is no longer an art form.’I grinned.‘Why do you smile?’‘It was a sort of joke when I was at Oxford. If you didn’t know what to say at a party, you used to ask a question like that.’‘Like what?’‘ “Do you think the novel is exhausted as an art form?” No serious answer was expected.’‘I see. It was not serious.’‘Not at all.’ I looked at the note...

    聪明的人有三种类型:第一种人的确聪明过人,认为别人夸自己聪明应当自然由衷;第二种人的聪明足以看出别人言过其实,刻意奉承;第三种人其实并不聪明,别人说什么他都相信。

    “那弥天大谎是什么,我因历史知识和科学知识太少,当时还不能理解。现在我明白了,当时我们都坚信自己是在为实现某一目标而努力,是在为某一计划服务——最终的结局会很好,因为有一个伟大的全盘计划。而不是现实。然而实际上并没有什么计划,一切都带有随意性。唯一能保全我们的是我们自己。”

    ……但那歌声像梦幻般的缓慢和朦胧,仿佛是天上的星星唱出来的,必须跨越整个夜空,才传到我的耳朵里。

    我把双脚抬离地面,在安乐椅上躺了下来,心里有一种感觉很强烈:有什么东西要从我和现实之间溜过去。

    “神的存在不是为了回答问题。而你是。”“一切事物的存在和发生,包括你,包括我,包括一切的神,都是一种偶然的机会,纯粹的偶然,别无其他。”

    “小说即使写得再清晰易懂,再有节制,毕竟还是不同于纵横填字游戏,在线索背后不会只有一套正确答案。有些读者来信写道: 亲爱的福尔斯先生,请解释一下……的真实意义。有时候我甚至对彻底改变当代学生的思维方式不再抱任何希望。如果《巫术师》有什么“真实意义”的话,也绝不会超过心理学上的罗夏墨迹测验。它的意义在于它在读者中引起的反应。就我这方面来说,不存在什么特定的“正确”反应。”

    即使最坏的经历,也有值得肯定的一面。他们有如燃料、矿石,最终是可以利用的,并不全是废物和痛苦的经历。

    一個男人走了進來,披一件黑斗篷,上面有各種白色的占星術和煉丹術象徵圖案。他頭上戴一頂帽子,帽舌有一碼高,很寬的張牙舞爪的帽檐,後面垂下來一條黑色飄帶把頸部遮住。他的手上戴著黑色手套,拿一根白色長柺杖,上面纏繞著一圈東西,那是一條把蛇尾伸進嘴裡的蛇。

    下一個是非洲人,其實是民間常見的稻草人,是用一堆黑色的破布做起來的。一縷縷的破布垂到地上,好似形成了一圈荷葉裙邊。甚至頭上的面具也是用破布做成的,頭髻上插三根羽毛,兩隻渾圓的大眼睛。沒有手臂沒有腿,無性別。只有在兒童的噩夢中才會出現這種東西。

    這一次出場的是一個女人。她穿的是傳統的英國巫服,戴有帽檐的黑頂帽,白色長髮,紅圍裙,黑斗篷,含有惡意的面具,鷹鉤鼻子。她彎著腰,一瘸一拐地走到桌子右端,把她帶來的貓放在桌上。貓是死的,靠填充物保持其坐姿。貓的假眼盯著我。

    令我吃驚的是他臉上表露出來的兇悍,是一種近乎殘暴的兇猛。這樣的臉我還從來沒有見過,它表現出永不妥協,永不偏離,永遠不笑的堅定決心。

    ‘And does she like questions?’‘That depends on the questions.’‘Am I ever going to be told what you really think you’re doing?’‘You have been told.’‘Lie upon lie.’‘Perhaps that’s our way of telling the truth.’ But then, as if she knew she had smiled once too often, she looked down and added quickly. ‘Maurice once said to me—when I had just asked him a question rather like yours—he said, “An answer is always a form of death”.’There was something else in her face then. It was not implacable; but in some way impermeable.‘I think questions are a form of life.’ She said nothing, though I waited. ‘All right. I treated Alison very badly. I’m a born cad, a swine, whatever you want. But why the colossal performance just to tell one miserable moral bankrupt what he is?’‘Have you never...
