To inquire after the meaning or object of one’s own existence or of creation generally has always seemed to me absurd from an objective point of view.

oddly with my pronounced freedom from the need for direct contact with other human beings and human communities.
我又明显缺乏与别人和社会直接接触的愿望。我一直是按照自己的心愿做事：
I gang my own gait and have never belonged to my country, my home, my friends, or even my immediate family, with my whole heart；
我未曾全心全意地热爱我的国家、 我的家庭、我的朋友，甚至我的至亲；
in the face of all these ties I have never lost an obstinate sense of detachment, of the need for solitude-a feeling which increases with the years.
在面对所有这些关系纽带时，我一直保持着一种顽固的超然感以及避世的需要一这种感受随着年龄的增长不断加强。
