霍顿·考尔菲德的弟弟也在很年轻时去世了，他喝醉之后在纽约的游荡，其内在驱动力很可能跟康拉德非常相像，那就是内心无力摆脱这一死亡的阴影。
Holden Caulfield's brother also dies young, and the impetus for his drunken wandering in New York City may lie largely in his inability to deal with death much in the same way as Conrad.

He had the right personal qualities, too: a fine mind, a tough hide, a dry wit, and he was a better hearts player than Erskine Bowles.
我说，即便我的内心坚定不移，自己也不认识“哪怕一个天生可以使人信服的人”。我说这话时很认真，但他却当我在开玩笑。
I said, and he thought it was a great joke though I was serious, that even if I were certain in my own mind, I did not know "a single person with a talent for conviction."
