A little boy was drawing a sketch¹ with pencil and paper.

When his mother asked what he was doing, he answered immediately and with considerable pride: "I am drawing a portrait of God."

Being surprised and afraid, his mother said: "You cannot do that. No one has ever seen God. No one knows how God looks."

But the little boy replied complacently²: "Well, when I get through, they will know."

他的妈妈问他在干什么时，他马上很自豪地回答说：“我在画一幅上帝的肖像。”

可是小男孩得意的回答：“等我画完了，他们就会知道啦。”
