“I have hundreds of roubles that I don't know what to do with, and she stands there in a tattered coat and looks at me timidly," thought Pierre. "And what does she need money for? As id this money can add one hair's breadth to her happiness, her peace of mind? Can anything in the world make her or me less subject to evil and death? Death, which will end everything and which must come today or tomorrow - in a moment, anyhow, compared with eternity.” Volume IiPart IiPierre Bezukhov Book:War and Peace Source: War and Peace
“«大唐故婕妤上官«諱婉兒»氏墓志銘並序» 巨閥鴻勳,長源遠系。 冠冕交襲,公侯相繼。 爰誕賢明,是光鋒銳。 宮闈以得,若合符契。 瀟湘水斷,宛委山傾。 珠沈圓折,玉碎連城。 甫瞻松檟,靜聽墳塋。 千年萬歲,椒花頌聲。” EpitaphPart Ii710 Author:太平公主 (Princess Tàipíng of the Táng Dynasty)
