“He was walking one wet night through a desolate region of the City. A wagon trundled by, drenching his legs with a fine spray. He turned aside, and a maze of dingy streets opened before him. The sky between the slanting rooftops hung black as a slab of jet. Then a waning moon rode clear of the storm clouds. He had penetrated an old commercial sector of the City where winding lanes lay lampless, flanked by dilapidated warehouses. Every window was boarded up or shattered; too many doorways opened onto musty darkness. With every turn of the black road the same scene lay revealed: row upon row of grey, sagging eaves; scarred and battered gates; rusting fences; sickle moons in every shallow remnant of the rain. He seemed to be shedding the present with every step, moving backwards through time. It seemed that he was acting out some part prearranged, utterly without will. "The White Road”

“「哈哈哈哈⋯⋯」沈華北大笑起來，失重的虛弱使他站立不穩，但在精神上他已亢奮到極點，「長城和金字塔都是完全失敗的超級工程，前者沒能擋住北方騎馬民族的入侵，後者也沒能使其中的法老木乃伊復活，但時間使這些都無關重要，只有凝結在其上的人類精神永遠光彩照人！」他指指身後高高聳立的地球隧道南極站，「與這條偉大的地心長城相比，你們這些哭哭啼啼的孟姜女是多麼可憐！哈哈哈哈⋯⋯」”
