The business is conducted on a scale of unprecedented immensity .

这项业务是按前所未有的巨大规模来经营的。

||1: Although Mr de Botton is a clever man, he often stretches a good idea beyond its elastic limit. ||2: Religions are “the most successful educational and intellectual movements the planet has ever witnessed,” he states, because they tell people what to think and hammer it home. ||3: University lecturers anxious to persuade should copy the didactic tricks of a Pentecostal preacher. “Do you hear me?” he hollers. “I say do you hear me?” ||4: An analysis of religious imagery leads him to recommend advertising “forgiveness” on billboards. ||5: Daily bouts of meditation on the immensity of the galaxies, he argues, will offer “solutions to our megalomania, self-pity and anxiety”.

||1: 虽然de Botton先生是一个聪明人，但是他时常把一个好的想法延伸出适当的范围之外。 ||2:宗教是“这个星球历史上最成功的教育和智识运动”，他说，因为它告诉人们该去想什么，而且还确保大家都真的理解了。||3:大学里的那些急于说服学生的讲师们真应该效仿圣灵降临教传教士的那一套说教技巧。“你听见我说的了吗？”他大叫，“我说，你听见我说的了吗？”||4:在对宗教形象进行了分析后，他推荐在公告板上宣传“宽恕”。||5:他主张说，每天数次对无边的银河进行沉思可以提供“对抗狂妄自大，自暴自弃和焦虑的方法”。

||1:From 1968, at the end of every working day, he took a black-and-white photograph of his impassive face against the canvas. This too was part of the project. It was not egoism or narcissism, he insisted.||2: After all, his art told people nothing about his quotidian life. None of it—the birth in France, the childhood in Poland interrupted by war, the art studies in Warsaw, the year in Berlin—seemed important beside the immensity of the self-imposed task. ||3:He spoke about that, when asked, rather diffidently, softly rubbing the rims of his glasses in one hand, talking of Heidegger and Pascal and the notions of number held by the ancient Greeks, smiling often with what seemed to be repressed joy. And why not?||4: Though people saw him as a prisoner, he felt more liberated with every stroke of the brush.||5: Each of his self-portraits, with steadily silvering hair and whitening skin, showed him progressing as inevitably as his numbers into the infinity he longed for.

||1:从1968年起，每天工作结束，他都站在画布前照一张黑白照，都是些像寸照一样的照片，照他没有表情的脸。这也是这个项目的一部分。他说，这不是自我中心，更不是自恋。||2:毕竟，他的作品里没有传达任何关于他平日生活的事情，一点都没有，没有关于他在法国出生的事情，没有他在波兰经历战争的童年生活，没有他在华沙学习艺术的事情，没在柏林那一年的事情，这些，与他自愿接受的这项巨大任务相对都不重要。||3:人们问到他的作品时，他有点羞怯，轻轻扶了下眼镜框，谈起海格德尔，帕斯卡，谈成古代希腊人赋予数字的意义，他笑起来，带着点压抑的欢乐。怎能不欢乐？||4:人们看他像住在监狱里，可是每刷动一次笔刷，他都感觉到更加自由。||5:他每一幅自拍照片，银色的头发，白的肤色，展示着他的生命就像他所渴望的无穷的数字一样不可逆转地延续着。
