This is a booklet of Maeterlinck, divided into a few short fragments, each with a title, like a broken stained glass, a piece scattered in every corner.
Maeterlinck's "Wisdom and Destiny" is easy to classify as a monitor, and when we first read it, it is true that it is similar to the popular success books in recent years. Nothing but empty and impractical empty words. But after reading a few chapters, one might want to abandon the idea of classifying it. The first is its sincere language, and then the wisdom that comes in the book.
There is no need for some examples-Oedipus, Oleriouse, and Jean-Paul-we can certainly comprehend the intentions of Maeterlinck, for this book is the wisdom of reverie, the aimless wisdom, which may come from a stop, an afternoon stroll, a auspice of happiness passing through the moment of mind, In those moments of human brilliance, Maeterlinck experience with the gesture of a wise man, and tell us about these fates. We don't need to introduce it too much, it's not easy. It's also hard to explain the contents of every little piece. This book itself is a kind of introduction, it is in a wise gesture to tell us what is hidden in the depths of things, it is sincere, rambling, for its own open posture, once we read it, grasp scattered in the book of those fragments, until the end of the beads to string together, You will go deep into it: perhaps that voice once sounded in our mind, but for many years, we no longer hear, until the Maeterlinck again to tell. Once again we see this secret, which of course requires patience, more important wisdom and experience, because without experiencing it before the exploration of life and destiny, then Maeterlinck tells us that we will only be empty rhetoric.
Maeterlinck at the end of the Amily Bronte's life. He called her the greatest genius of the 19th century, and perhaps he saw in her the face-to-head battle of Fate, which required great courage and wisdom, just as Jacob and the Angels and after the duel he was worthy of the name of Israel. We know that Amily Bronte life is very short, 29-year-old died is still a virgin, but she knows the true meaning of love, more than we often talk about to know more. So, in her novels, Love is so crazy, even scary. It is such a love. The lure of Heathcliff's revenge and remorse. Amily Bronte experienced, rather, in the fate of the experience of such love. But we looked at her life as a bystander, and though such an end ended, she could not throw the word of misfortune on her, especially such a genius.
All in all, this book has no doubt revealed sincerity, he may have left a lot of people preaching suspicion, but at least it is sincere and intelligent, listening to the whispers of the wise, itself is to listen to the whispers of fate.
