世界的情况在不断变化,人的观念也在变化。 政府是为了生者,而不是为死者,只有生者拥有任何权利。
The circumstances of the world are continually changing, and the opinions of man change also; and as government is for the living, and not for the dead, it is the living only that has any right in it.
专制制度就像地狱一样,并不容易战胜,但我们可以安慰的是:斗争越艰巨,胜利将越光荣。
Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.
The mind once enlightened cannot again become dark.
It is error only, and not truth, that shrinks from inquiry.
The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.
Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one.
Reason obeys itself; and ignorance submits to whatever is dictated to it.
The mind once enlightened cannot again become dark.
A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong gives it a superficial appearance of being right.
The strength and power of despotism consists wholly in the fear of resistance.
专制主义的力量和权力完全在于对抵抗的恐惧。
