Other traditional radical goals - such as the "abolition of poverty" - are, in contrast to this one, truly utopian, for man, simply by exerting his will, cannot abolish poverty.

其他传统的激进目标——比如说“消灭贫穷”，和这个目标完全不同，是真正的乌托邦，因为人类，仅凭自己的意志，是不可能消灭贫穷的。

Knowing full well that men could abolish poverty, you are nevertheless aware of its eternity and you feel a bitter anxiety in which man appears in all his petty inconsequence.

你清楚地知道人类是可以消灭贫穷的，然而你也知道贫穷是永恒的，于是你阅尽人类所有微小矛盾，终感痛苦焦虑。

St. Francis wanted to sanctify poverty, not to abolish it.

圣弗朗西斯想圣化贫困而不是消除它。
