7. When you silently leave, the words spoken or unspoken are all forgotten. I have embedded my tears among the pages of a book, like those few jasmine flowers from our youthful days.

Outside the window, it might be raining, a fine, fine rain at that moment — Xi Muyuan.

25. For this reason, on one hand, we should advocate that professional writers step out of the city and delve into the grassroots, showcasing the social and life aspects of the silent world to the public, enlightening them and winning their attention.

Supporting writers from the bottom layer is not merely an embellishment or a necessity of literature, but a necessity of the times, society, and history. - Duan Chongxuan

32. 我散步时的侣伴，我的河，你在歌唱着什么？我这是多么无意识的话呵。但是我知道没有水的地方就是沙漠。你从我们居住的小市镇流过。我们在你的水里洗衣服洗脚。我们在沉默的群山中间听着你像听着大地的脉搏。我爱人的歌，也爱自然的歌，我知道没有声音的地方就是寂寞。—— 何其芳

32. My companion in my walks, my river, what are you singing? What an unconscious thing I've said. But I know that where there is no water, there is desert.

36. The only condition in which evil triumphs is when good men remain silent. – Edmund Burke

37. 沉默是一种权力形式。沉默者总给人一种威慑力。因为沉默的人就是保守秘密的人，秘密保留得越多，权力就越大。**里的特务头子经常是一个沉默寡言的人，因为他知道太多的致人于死地的秘密，所以必须少说。还有，皇帝也经常沉默寡言，因为他一说话别人就有生命危险。—— 张柠

37. Silence is a form of power. Those who remain silent always exude a sense of intimidation. Because the silent ones are those who keep secrets, and the more secrets they retain, the greater their power. The head of the spies is often a silent person, because he knows too many deadly secrets and must therefore speak little. Moreover, the emperor often keeps silent as well, because once he speaks, others are in danger of their lives. — Zhang Ning

38. 在两个人发生不愉快之后，如果对方用这种冷暴力对待你，无非是三种原因。第一，他想让你哄他，看你有多在乎他，哄到他开心为止。第二，他想用冷暴力惩罚你，想看到你对他的沉默无计可施，因为冷暴力而懊恼不已。第三，他真的需要静静，不想被打扰。如果想让双方的关系好起来，就得“投其所好”，变成对方想让你变成的样子。

38. After an unpleasant incident between two people, if the other person treats you with this cold shoulder, it can only be due to three reasons. First, he wants you to comfort him, to see how much you care about him, and to keep him happy until he is satisfied. Second, he wants to punish you with the cold shoulder, to see you helpless against his silence, and to be constantly distressed because of the cold shoulder. Third, he truly needs some quiet time and doesn't want to be disturbed. If you want to improve the relationship between the two of you, you need to " cater to his tastes," and become the person he wants you to be.

39. 知识分子，偶然遭受一两次痛苦，便会觉得这个刺激过于强烈，便会大叫起来；可是广大的群众，无时无刻不受着痛苦的压迫，感觉便麻木了，他们在大街上或者在住宅中所能看见的，只有沉默—— 契诃夫

39. Intellectuals, having suffered once or twice, will find the stimulus too intense and will cry out; but the vast masses, who are constantly oppressed by suffering, become numb. All they see on the streets or in their homes is silence—Chekhov

40. 明言着轻蔑什么人，并不是十足的轻蔑。惟沉默是最高的轻蔑-------最高的轻蔑是无言，而且连眼珠也不转过去。—— 鲁迅

41. 在我的血液里我感觉到你隐约的蒙住的足音，“永动的 过去”呵， 在喧哗的白日中 我曾见过你沉寂的面容。 你曾来到用看不见的笔迹在我们命运的书页上写出我们 祖先未写完的故事。 你把被忘却的描塑新形象的图案 引回到生命之中。 那不宁的“现在”它本身不就是你自己的一群幻象 像一天星宿从无限的沉默的天空飞了起来么？ 38① 我能生在这一片土地上，因此我有运气去爱她，我是 有福的。 即使她不曾拥有王室的珍宝，但是她的爱的活财富对我 就够宝贵的了。 对我心的最好的芳香礼物就是从她自己的花朵中来，我 也不知道还有何处的月光能用这样的美妙来泛滥我的 心身。 呈现在我眼中的第一道光辉是从她自己的天空来的，让 这光辉在我眼睛永闭之前再亲吻它们。—— 泰戈尔

41. In my blood, I feel your faint, veiled footsteps, "Eternal Past," Ah, in the clamor of the day, I have seen your silent face. You have come to write the story of our ancestors that was left unwritten in the pages of our destiny with an invisible pen. You have brought back to life the patterns of new images that were forgotten. The restless "Now" itself is not it yourself, a group of illusions that rose like a constellation from the infinite silence of the sky? 38① I am lucky to be born on this land, therefore I have the fortune to love her, and I am blessed. Even if she does not possess the royal treasures, but her living wealth of love is enough precious to me. The best aromatic gift to my heart is from her own flowers, and I do not know where else the moonlight can overflow my body and soul with such beauty. The first ray of light that appears before my eyes comes from her own sky, let this light kiss them before my eyes are forever closed. — Tagore

42. 当一个社会现实，人所共知又集体沉默、传言满天又查无实据的时候，是文学作品发言的最佳时机。这种“源于生活又高于生活”的艺术，在新闻媒体无比发达的今天之所以还有存在的空间，有发出声音的可能，其原因也在于此。小说变成揭穿行业“潜规则”的工具，就仿佛把文学作品命名为“现实主义”一样，是它作为公共媒体的职责之一。—— 付艳霞

42. When a social reality is widely known yet collectively silent, when rumors are everywhere yet there is no evidence to be found, that is the best time for literary works to speak out. This art that "comes from life yet transcends life" still has a space to exist and a possibility to make a voice heard in today's highly developed news media, and the reason for this lies in this very aspect. Novels have become tools to expose the "unspoken rules" of an industry, just as it is named "realism" in literary works, it is among its responsibilities as a public medium. — Fu Yanxia

43. 往往身价最高的，是较沉默的一个，何必浪费姿态？不单要贵，还要高贵。—— 李碧华

43. Often, the one with the highest price tag is the most silent. Why waste on posturing? Not only should it be expensive, but also noble. — Li Bihua

44. It is better to remain silent unless your words can bring comfort; it is better to be guilty for speaking the truth than to excuse yourself by lying. — Saadi

45. 我写因为我有话要说，我发表因为我欠债要还，十年浩劫教会一些人习惯于沉默，但十年的血债又压得平时沉默的人发出连声的呼喊。我有一肚皮的话，也有一肚皮的火，还有在油锅里反复煎了十年的一身骨头。火不熄灭，话被烧成灰，在心头越积越多，我不把它们倾吐出来，清除干净，就无法不做噩梦，就不能平静地度过我晚年的最后日子，甚至可以说我永远闭不了眼睛。—— 巴金

45. I write because I have things to say, I speak out because I owe a debt that needs to be repaid. Ten years of chaos have taught some people the habit of silence, but the ten years of blood debt have also pressed those who were normally silent to let out a continuous cry. I have a belly full of words, a belly full of fire, and a body that has been fried in oil for ten years. The fire does not extinguish, the words are burned to ashes, and accumulate more and more in the heart. If I do not pour them out and clean them up, I cannot avoid having nightmares, I cannot calmly spend the remaining days of my later years, and it can be said that I will never be able to close my eyes. — Ba Jin

46. 当言语已经没有作用时，真挚的沉默似乎更有说服力。—— 慧律法师

46. When words have no effect, sincere silence seems more persuasive. -慧律法师

47. 当我没有什么事做时，便让我不做什么事，不受骚扰地沉入安静深处吧，一如海水沉默时海边的暮色。—— 泰戈尔

47. When I have nothing to do, let me do nothing, sink into the profound silence undisturbed, as the twilight along the seaside is when the sea is silent.— Rabindranath Tagore

48. 当代女性散文经历了一个从沉默到喧哗的过程。

48. Contemporary women's prose has undergone a process from silence to noise.

49. 他们说你疯了。沉默着等待到明天。 他们向你头上抛掷尘土。等待到明天。他们会向你献上 花环。 他们远远地坐在高位上。等待到明天。他们会走下还低 下头来。—— 泰戈尔

49. They say you are mad. Wait silently until tomorrow. They will throw dust upon your head. Wait until tomorrow. They will offer you a garland. They will sit far away in high places. Wait until tomorrow. They will come down and bow their heads low. — Tagore

50. 白日以这小小的地球的喧扰，淹没了整个宇宙的沉默。—— 泰戈尔

50. The hustle and bustle of this tiny Earth overwhelms the silence of the entire universe during the day. - Tagore

51. 我这一刻感到你的眼光正落在我的心上，象那早晨阳光中的沉默落在已收获的孤寂的田野上一样。—— 泰戈尔

51. At this moment, I feel your gaze resting upon my heart, like the silence of the morning sun that falls upon the solitary fields that have been harvested. — Tagore

52. 如果对方只是偶尔会对你有冷暴力，而有冷暴力的原因真的是你有什么做的不对，那可以接受，但如果对方只会用冷暴力解决问题却不跟你好好沟通，那你就要好好跟对方谈谈了，毕竟只有沟通才能让你的关系变的更好。

52. If the other person occasionally uses cold violence against you and the reason for the cold violence is truly something you did wrong, then it can be accepted. However, if the other person only uses cold violence to solve problems without communicating with you properly, then you should have a serious talk with them, because only through communication can your relationship become better.

53. 草根就没有话语权吗？是沉默大多数吗？不是皇家生下来的都是草根，我这样理解。你怎么理解？—— 王朔

53. Don't the grassroots have the right to speak? Are they the silent majority? Not all who are born into the royal family are grassroots, that's how I understand it. How do you understand it? — Wang Shuo

54. 沉默的大地看着我的脸张开她的手臂围抱着我。 在夜里星辰的手指摩抚我的梦魂。他们知道我从前的名 字。 他们的微语使我忆起那长长的无声的催眠歌的音调。 他们把初晓光明中我所看见的笑容带到我的心上。 爱在大地的每一砂粒中，快乐的绵延的天空里。 即使化为尘土我也甘心，因为尘土被他的脚所触踏。 即使变成花朵我也愿意，因为花朵被他拈在手里。 他是在海中，在岸上；他是和负载一切的船儿同在。 无论我是什么我都是有福的，这个可爱的尘土的大地是 有福的。—— 泰戈尔

54. The silent earth beholds my face, opening her arms to embrace me. The fingers of the stars in the night caress my dream soul. They know my former name. Their whispers evoke the tone of that long, silent lullaby. They bring to my heart the smile I saw in the first light of dawn. Love dwells in every grain of the earth, in the endless sky of joy. Even if I turn to dust, I am willing, for dust is trodden upon by his feet. Even if I become a flower, I am willing, for flowers are held in his hands. He is in the sea, on the shore; he is with the ships that bear all. Whatever I am, I am blessed, this beloved earth of dust is blessed. — Tagore

55. 沉默比话语更接近本质，美比权力更有价值。—— 周国平

55. Silence is closer to the essence than words, and beauty is more valuable than power. - Zhou Guoping

56. 关于“新散文”，批评界始终都是以一种极大的热情来鼓励召唤它，在八十年代，几乎每一种文体——小说也好，戏剧也好、诗歌也好，都开始了“探索”、“实验”、“先锋”、“崛起”的过程，但是唯独散文的园地静悄悄，似无人耕种一样。面对这种沉默，散文理论家开始积极呼唤具有现代意识的散文的诞生。—— 王虹艳

56. Regarding "New Prose," the critical community has always encouraged and called for it with great enthusiasm. In the 1980s, almost every literary genre—whether it be novels, drama, or poetry—began a process of "exploration," "experimentation," "avant-garde," and "emergence." However, the territory of prose remained silent, as if it were untended. Faced with this silence, prose theorists began to actively call for the birth of prose with a modern consciousness. — Wang Hongyan
