是什么让这张脸主人过上隐居和克己生活？

Well, it's true. You're stoic to the point of being cold.

是这样。坚忍克己到近乎冷漠地步。

Stoicism is an admirable response to what fate deals you.

有时他忍不住暗暗地想看看他学生脸；但他克己规则甚至延伸到好奇心，阻止他向青年传达他愿望。

He set the picture of her up, beside the infamous image of last night; and thought, Could it be, that the whole earthly course of one so gentle, good, and self-denying, was subjugate to such a wretch as that!

他把她照片放在昨晚臭名昭著照片旁边；心想，难道一个如此温柔、善良、克己人在世上整个行为都屈服于这样一个可怜虫！
