It is possible that Rodin meant The Thinker to be a self portrait. He was an egotistical person. Some rare people are so filled with egotism that they imagine that they speak for all mankind. Rodin had this sort of ambition. He was also a precise and even calculating artist. He kept his thoughts about the world confined within the familiar contours of the human body.

《思想者》可能就是罗丹的自画像，因为他很自负。一些杰出人物都相当自负，他们觉得自己是全人类的代言人。罗丹就有这样的理想。他也是一位精确甚至精打细算的艺术家。他把自己对世界的看法限制在了人体那些熟悉的曲线中。

【这是关于罗丹：《吻》和《思想者》的看法之一。希望你也能脱口而出^*^】
