- 有些老太婆与老头子,随着年岁而变得脾气暴戾——牙齿掉得越多,越发咬得入骨。
Some old women and men grow bitter with age; the more their teeth drop out, the more biting they get.

Knowing the difference between right and wrong does not depend on one's socioeconomic class.
Being born in poverty is no excuse for not knowing the difference between right and wrong. I would even say that being a member of an oppressed group would ideally mean that one is even clearer than those have not been oppressed to recognize what is right and what is wrong, what benefits others and what hurts or injuries others, and to act accordingly.
Knowing the difference between right and wrong is the birthright of every human being. No one can take it away from you.
And being born into wealth or having made a tidy bundle in the stock market--we all know--does not mean that one knows the difference between and wrong, either.

Cezanne sur Poussin ("Le Triomphe de Flore")
« Je voudrais, comme dans le Triomphe de Flore, unir les courbes des femmes à des épaules de collines… Je voudrais comme Poussin, mettre de la raison dans l’herbe et des pleurs dans le ciel. »
Paul Cezanne
