Reserving judgments is a matter of infinite hope. I am still a little afraid of missing something if I forget that, as my father snobbishly suggested, and I snobbishly repeat, a sense of the fundamental decencies is parcelled out unequally at birth.
不给别人下定论是一件能带来无限期盼的事。我父亲曾势力地提出，我也势力地重复：人必要的正派感在出生时没能等量分配。如果我一时忘了它，我倒有点害怕会错过什么。
