"我们不仅仅想看到美……我们想要一种难以用言语表达的东西——与我们看到的美融为一体，进入美之中，将其吸收到我们自身之中，沉浸其中，成为它的一部分。"
— C. S. Lewis

Simplified Meaning:
When people encounter something truly beautiful, it's not just about looking at it. They have a deep desire to feel connected to it and experience it fully. Imagine standing in front of a magnificent sunset; you don’t just want to watch it, you want to feel its warmth, its colors, and its peacefulness inside you. This is the kind of connection the quote talks about. People often seek this unity with beauty, whether it's through art, nature, or love, because it makes them feel complete and fulfilled. By bringing this beauty into their lives, they feel more enriched and part of something greater than themselves. This longing can drive people to travel, to create, and to seek out experiences that make life more meaningful.
