He wanted to be near her. It was not desire, not that. It was the cruel sense of unfinished aloneness, that needed a silent woman folded in his arms. Perhaps he could find her. Perhaps he could even call her out to him: or find some way in to her.他需要去亲近她, 那并不是为了情欲, 不, 那是为了那残酷的缺憾的孤独的感觉, 这种感觉是需要一个静寂的妇人抱在他的两臂里, 才能使它消逝的, 也许他能找到她罢, 也许他甚至可以唤她出来, 或者寻个方法到她那里去罢。Lawrence, David Herbert / Lady Chatterley's Lover劳伦斯, 大卫 赫伯特 / 查太莱夫人的情人查太莱夫人的情人劳伦斯, 大卫 赫伯特Lady Chatterley's LoverLawrence, David Herbert© Wordsworth Editions Limited 2005
