第27页 信札四

有时候，我努力去发掘他究竟有什么特质使得他脱颖而出，远优于我所认识的任何人。我认为这个特质是一种直觉的辨识力，一种果决无误的判断力，一种对于事物缘由的洞察，无与伦比的清晰精确*；除此而外，他还善于表达，有一副抑扬顿挫如同安抚心灵之乐符的嗓音。

这形容的是Dr Frankenstein...当然，我想起了某人。

附上原文：
“Sometimes I have endeavored to discover what quality it is which he possesses that elevates him so immeasurably above any other person I ever knew. I believe it to be an intuitive discernment, a quick but never-failing power of judgment, a penetration into the causes of things, unequaled for clearness and precision；add to this a facility of expression and a voice whose varied intonations are soul-subduing music." pp27-28
