  “不打不成相识”,我是这样的知道了白采的。这是为学生李芳诗集的事。李芳将他的诗集交我删改,并嘱我作序。那时我在温州,他在上海。我因事忙,一搁就是半年;而李芳已因不知名的急病死在上海。我很懊悔我的需缓,赶紧抽了空给他工作。正在这时,平伯转来白采的信,短短的两行,催我设法将李芳的诗出版;又附了登在《觉悟》上的小说《作诗的儿子》,让我看看——里面颇有讥讽我的话。我当时觉得不应得这种讥讽,便写了一封近两千字的长信,详述事件首尾,向他辩解。信去了便等回信;但是杳无消息。等到我已不希望了,他才来了一张明信片;在我看来,只是几句半冷半热的话而已。我只能以“岂能尽如人意?但求无愧我心!”自解,听之而已。
