試譯摘出的兩行:

"I offer you that kernel of myself that I have saved somehow -the central heart that deals not in words, traffics not with dreams and is untouched by time, by joy, by adversities."

我願給你我的髓，那保存下來的心靈之要 - 語言不經，夢幻不由，也不為時光、歡樂、艱辛所動

"I offer you explanations of yourself, theories about yourself, authentic and surprising news of yourself."

我願向你解說你，論述你，向你報道關於你的或實在或荒誕的傳聞
