抄兩段 Primo Levi

開始讀Primo Levi的《If not now,when?》,讀到兩段:
"A creditor's eyes,Mendel thought, or the eyes of a man who feels he's owed something.But who doesn't feel owed something?"

"I come far away,too. For six months I've been living from day to day, and walking without knowing where I want to go;I walk to keep walking.I walk because I'm walking."

Primo Levi的語言簡潔而毫無修飾,因為簡潔所以呈現的力量很強,我開始讀了幾頁,就覺得心臟被擰住了,得深呼吸。以上兩段,是書的兩位主角的對話之一。尤其是後面這段,我讀到裡頭有蒼涼之感。
