"We Atayal are much smarter than animals." We rested on a platform that seemed to overlook the whole planet. The settlement was visible far away at the mountain's foot, girdled by a white stream flowing in a bow-shape to its left before meandering off into the west to shake hands with a row of low clouds.
我們在一處視界空曠的小台地憩息，部落遠遠地被踢在山下，河流是一條白色的帶，在部落左側打個蝴蝶結，然後向西滑行，最後和一排低矮的雲握手。
