几乎没有人可以跻身顶层，却不以出卖灵魂，放弃恋人和稳定的婚姻和家庭为代价。

It's almost impossible to get to the very, very top and not essentially sell your soul to get that power at the expense of lover-relationships, and stable marriages, and stable families.

可以妥协，但不是出卖灵魂。

Compromise is okay, but not at the expense of your soul.

下一阶段，你发现你很瘦弱，在角落颤抖，确定自己可以把灵魂出卖就只为了可以再一次得到那东西。

Next stage finds you skinny, shaking in a corner, certain only that you'd sell your soul just to have that one thing one more time.
