愛，很好。因?yàn)閻凼瞧D難的。當(dāng)一個(gè)人去愛另一個(gè)人，這也許是神給予我們的最艱難、最重大的任務(wù)，是最后的考驗(yàn)與測試，是最崇高的工作，別的工作都不過是為此而做的準(zhǔn)備。所以那些一切都還剛剛開始的青年們還不能去愛，他們必須要學(xué)習(xí)。必須用他們整個(gè)的生命，用一切的力量，用集聚了他們寂寞、痛苦和榮譽(yù)感的心去學(xué)習(xí)愛。在學(xué)習(xí)時(shí)期這個(gè)長久而專注的過程中，愛就會(huì)永遠(yuǎn)地銘刻心扉——深深的寂寞中孤獨(dú)地等待，是為了所愛的人。愛的要義并不是什么傾心、獻(xiàn)身，或二人的結(jié)合（那會(huì)是怎樣的一種結(jié)合呢？是一種糊涂的、不負(fù)責(zé)任的、輕率的結(jié)合）。它對(duì)于個(gè)人是一種崇高的動(dòng)力，是去成熟并實(shí)現(xiàn)自身的圓滿，去完成一個(gè)世界，是為了另一個(gè)人而完成一個(gè)自己的世界，這是一個(gè)艱巨的、不可妥協(xié)的目標(biāo)，用堅(jiān)定的信念，向遠(yuǎn)方召喚。青年們應(yīng)把愛當(dāng)做他們的課業(yè)、他們工作的意義，并在其中（“晝夜不停地探索、錘煉”）使用那些給予他們的愛。至于傾心、獻(xiàn)身以及結(jié)合，還不是他們所能做的（他們還需長時(shí)間地克制、積累），那是最后的終點(diǎn)，也許是我們現(xiàn)在還幾乎不能達(dá)到的境界。
