He says in The Bridge, he asks the bridge to lend a myth to God, and he suggests that this is something that every age must do because our names for God are always metaphors, poems, something imagined, acts of speech.

他在《桥》中写道，他请求大桥借与上帝一个神话，他暗示到有些事情是每个年纪的人都必须做的,因为我们给予上帝的名总是一些隐喻啊诗歌啊，一些想象的事物，对言辞的表演。
