　　Dumbledore,

　　邓布利多，

　　The peculiar thing is that you've given me no particular reason to want to help you with this Voldemort bloke. (That would be the correct British term, yes? Bloke?) It was mostly technical. Obsessed with death, that one, even for a Dark wizard. Terrified of it, even as he nursed delusions of grandeur. Unhealthy attitude. But you probably knew that already. He was not on the path of the Hallows. Probably just as well. The fewer upstarts after that sort of thing, the better.

　　你并没有给我一个特殊的理由让我想要帮你对付这个伏地魔小子。（在英国是这么叫的对吗？小子？）这很不寻常。他为死亡着迷，这种痴迷，即使在黑巫师中也不常见。他害怕死亡，以致生出了强烈的不切实际的妄想。一种病态的表现。不过这些你大概已经知道了。他还没有去寻找死亡圣器的念头。这可能是个好消息。追求那种东西的，自命不凡的家伙越少越好。

　　He was mostly on about his crackpot theory to improve the Killing Curse—won't work out, I think. That and Horcruxes. Woolly business. I like all my bits in one place where they belong, and if somebody's good enough to take me out I'd rather die properly, none of this floating about half-alive nonsense.

　　他主要执着于利用一套古怪的理论去改进杀戮咒——我想这是成不了事的，然后是魂器之类乱七八糟的破事。我还是喜欢完完整整的待在一个地方，如果有什么人可以好心的把我从这个地方弄出去，我更乐意体面地赴死，而不是把自己搞成个半死不活的什么东西。

　　I don't hate you, Albus. I never have, and at this point there's nothing worse you can do to me, so I never will. That's the problem.

　　我不恨你，阿不思。从前没有，以后你也不会对我做比这更糟的事了，所以以后我也不会，永远不会。就这样。

　　P.S. Getrude says, "And identity is funny being yourself is funny as you are never yourself to yourself except as you remember yourself and then of course you do not believe yourself."

　　P.S. 格特鲁德说，“自我意识是可笑的，做自己也是是可笑的，因为对于你自己来说，你永远都不会是你自己，除非你记得你自己，不过，当然，你是不会相信你自己的。”

　　注：
1.断句：And identity is funny / being yourself is funny / as you are never yourself to yourself / except as you remember yourself / and then / of course / you do not believe yourself.
2.总感觉格皇会是那种，一边骂骂咧咧不屑一顾，一边把阿不思送来的书来来回回翻阅。
