所谓自然

所谓自然,不过是你参不透的艺术

谓之自然,只因你参不透其中的艺术;
谓之偶然,只因你看不清其指的方向;
谓之噪音,只因你听不出其中的和弦;
所谓半恶,实为你看不出何为至善。
是骄傲,是骄傲侵蚀了你的理智,
但真理仍不显自明:存在即合理。


All Nature Is But Art Unknown To Thee

By Alexander Pope (1688-1744)

All nature is but art unknown to thee;
All chance, direction which thou canst not see;
All discord, harmony not understood;
All partial evil, universal good;
And, spite of pride, in erring reason’s spite,
One truth is clear, “Whatever IS, is RIGHT.”
