We do not criticize or ridicule this kind of thinking or action; it only gives us a deep feeling of sadness. This sadness comes from the bloodstained historical memories of China throughout the recent centuries. And these memories arise from one turbulent era after another.
我們並不苛責或是訕笑這樣的想法或行動，只是感到一種深沉的悲哀；這種悲哀，來自於中國人近百年來斑痕纍纍的歷史記憶；而這樣的記憶，則來自於一個又一個動盪不安的大時代。
