Music begins to atrophy when it departs too far from the dance... poetry begins to atrophy when it gets too far from music.

Music begins to atrophy when it departs too far from the dance... poetry begins to atrophy when it gets too far from music.

当音乐离开舞蹈太远时，它就开始萎缩。当诗歌远离音乐时，它就开始萎缩。

-- Ezra Pound 以斯拉镑
