The Thoughts of Blaise Pascal

It must always be remembered that each editor must necessarily follow his own judgment in regard to the position he should give to fragments not placed by the writer.

必须永远记住，每位编辑必然要依据自己的判断，决定如何安排作者未曾归位的片段。

The course of an English translator is clear; his responsibility is confined to deciding which text to follow, he has no right to make one for himself.

英语译者的道路很明确：他的职责仅限于决定遵循哪一种文本，他无权自行另造一种。
