If eternal return is the heaviest of burdens, then our lives can stand out against it in all their splendid lightness. But, is heaviness truly deplorable and lightness splendid? The heaviest of burdens crushes us. We sink beneath it. It pins us to the ground. The heaviest of burdens is, therefore, simultaneously an image of life's most intense fulfillment. The heavier the burden, the closer our lives come to the earth; the more real and truthful they become.
如果永劫回归是最沉重的负担,那么我们的生活就能以其全部辉煌的轻松,来与之抗衡:可是,沉重便真的悲惨,而轻松便真的辉煌吗?最沉重的负担压得我们崩塌了,沉没了,将我们钉在地上、由此,最沉重的负担同时也是一种生活最为充实的象征j负担越沉,我们的生活也就贴近大地,越趋近真切和实在。
Conversely, the absolute absence of a burden causes man to be lighter than air, to soar into the heights. Take leave of the earth and his earthly being and become only half real. His movements as free as they are insignificant. What then shall we choose; weight or lightness?
相反,完全没有负担,人变得比大气还轻,会高高地飞起,离别大地亦即离别真实的生活。他将变得似真非真,运动自由而毫无意义,那么我们将选择什么呢?沉重还是轻松?
I have been thinking about Tomas for many years. But only in the light of these reflections did I see him clearly. I saw him standing at the window of his flat and looking across the courtyard at the opposite walls not knowing what to do.
