For my own part, I could not look but with wonder and respect on the Chinese. Their forefathers watched the stars before mine had begun to keep pigs.  Gun-powder and printing, which the other day we imitated, and a school of manners which we never had the delicacy so much as to desire to imitate, were theirs in a long-past antiquity.  They walk the earth with us, but it seems they must be of different clay. They hear the clock strike the same hour, yet surely of a different epoch. They travel by steam conveyance, yet with such a baggage of old Asiatic thoughts and superstitions as might check the locomotive in its course. Whatever is thought within the circuit of the Great Wall; what the wry-eyed, spectacled schoolmaster teaches in the hamlets round Pekin; religions so old that our language looks a halfing boy alongside;  philosophy so wise that our best philosophers find things therein to wonder at; all this travelled alongside of me for thousands of miles over plain and mountain. Heaven knows if we had one common thought or fancy all that way, or whether our eyes, which yet were formed upon the same design, beheld the same world out of the railway windows.  And when either of us turned his thoughts to home and childhood, what a strange dissimilarity must there not have been in these pictures of the mind  —when I beheld that old, gray, castled city, high throned above the firth, with the flag of Britain flying, and the red-coat sentry pacing over all; and the man in the next car to me would conjure up some junks and a pagoda and a fort of porcelain, and call it, with the same affection, home.

就我自己来说，我看华人总带着惊奇与尊重。人家的祖先观察星象时，我们的祖先还没开始圈养猪猡呢！火药和印刷术我们前不久开始从人家那里学了过来，至于人家那一整套礼仪，我们可是从来没有想学一番的雅兴，但这些早就是人家实践经年的传统。华人和我们在同一个地球上行走，但是人家想必是用不同泥土做成的。华人和我们一同听钟报时，但听到的肯定是不同时代的音讯。人家乘蒸汽机车旅行，可背负着重重的亚洲思想和神秘信仰，重得一路上会把火车压垮！万里长城内之所想，戴眼镜斜视的先生在京郊村落中之所授，令我们的语言看上去幼稚如娃的古老宗教，让我们最牛的哲学家惊叹不已的哲学智慧，所有这一切，在这数千里的行程中，越高山、过平原与我相随相伴。天知道，我们一路上是否能在某件事情上所思所幻相同，天知道，我们构造相同的眼睛从车窗望出去是否看到同一个天地。当我们各自把思绪转到家乡与童年时，我们的脑海中呈现出家的奇特差异：我看到的家是那座老旧、暗灰色的古堡之城，高高地屹立在海口，不列颠的旗帜高扬，穿红色衣服的哨兵四处巡逻；可我们隔壁车厢里的人却会在脑海中浮现帆船、宝塔、瓷器做的城堡，深情地将那个地方称为家乡，我们殊途同归。
