白寿彝先生是我的前辈 ,也是我的同志。我对于他的为人是钦敬的 ,对于他的为学是佩服的。当他临终的前三日 ,我曾到医院中一晤 ,未交一语 ,竟成永别 ,我是异常悲痛的。寿彝先生留在世间的 ,有卷帙空前的《中国通史》 ,由于新闻媒体的宣传 ,举世皆知之。但他为人为学之高不可及 Mr. Bai Shouyi is my predecessor and my comrade. I am respectful to him, admiration for his learning. I was extremely sad when I had been in a hospital for the first three days of his death. Mr. Shou Yi’s presence in the world has an unprecedented “volume of history in China,” which is best known in the world because of the media’s propaganda. But he is unattainable for humanity
