Ailing Zhang (or
Eileen Chang), the Chinese-American essayist, novelist, and screenwriter, died
at age 74.
When you meet the
one among the millions, when amid millions of years, across the borderless
wastes of time, you happen to catch him or her, neither a step too early nor a
step too late, what else is there to do except to ask softly: "So you're
here, too?"
– Ailing Chang, “Eighteen Springs” (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Eileen_Chang)
于千万人之中遇见你所要遇见的人，于千万年之中，时间的无涯的荒野里，没有早一步，也没有晚一步，刚巧赶上了，那也没有别的话可说，惟有轻轻地问一声：“噢，你也在这里吗？——张爱玲《半生缘》
