爱德华·萨义德 《流亡的感想》

流亡的难民总带着愤慨看着那些不需流亡的人。他们属于他们四周，你感到，然而一个流亡者总是无处可归。出生在一个地方，在那里居住生活，知道你属于那里，可能直到永远——这是一种什么样的感受？
爱德华·萨义德 《流亡的感想》

Exiles look at non-exiles in resentment. They belong in their surroundings, you feel, whereas an exile is always out of place. What is it like to be born in a place, to stay and live there, to know that you are of it, more or less forever?
Edward Said, “Reflections on Exile”
