Abstract

Beginning is hard. It always feels so arbitrary. Things get easier, it’s true, once we’ve begun, for example by simply saying ‘in the beginning’. Yet once we’re on our way, we don’t know where we’re going. Having begun, we need a destination, an end, to finish beginning. Such an end allows it to take place so that it has been. Otherwise, it would be without preterition, imperfect. Without an end, beginning would be paratactic, repetitive – endless.

卢梭无耻的开端
开始很难。它总是让人觉得很武断。的确,一旦我们开始,事情就会变得更容易,例如简单地说“在开始”。然而,一旦我们上路,我们就不知道要去哪里。开始后,我们需要一个目的地,一个结束,来结束开始。这样的结局使它得以发生,使它一直如此。否则,它将是没有借口的,不完美的。如果没有结束,开始将是并列的、重复的——无穷无尽的。
