I hope a few lines will not annoy or embarrass you. I'm writing because I'd like you to know that I am not a common thief. I could think of no way to become acquainted with you except by acting rashly—foolishly, to be accurate. But then, one is a fool when one is in love.

我希望這些話不會讓你煩惱或?qū)擂?。我寫下這些，是因?yàn)槲蚁胱屇阒?，我不是尋常意義上的小偷。我想不出任何辦法來認(rèn)識你，除了做出輕率的舉動，確切來說，是愚蠢的行為?？赡阒?，戀愛中的人總是愚蠢的。

I loved the way your lips were so slightly parted. You represented the answer to everything to me. I can best describe myself as having been one of the thousands of young men who simply exist.

我愛你雙唇微啟的模樣。你為我揭開了萬事萬物的謎底。說起來，我原本和成千上萬的年輕人一樣，只是活著罷了。

Loving you is the important thing. There are some people who think love is sex and marriage and six o'clock-kisses and children, and perhaps it is. But do you know what I think? I think love is a touch and yet not a touch.

愛你是唯一重要的事。有人認(rèn)為愛是性，是婚姻，是清晨六點(diǎn)的吻，是生一堆孩子，也許真是這樣的。但你知道我怎么想嗎？我覺得愛是想觸碰又收回手。
