War is the father of all, and king of all; and some he has made gods, and some men; some he has made slaves, and some free.
The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes.... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.
大海是万物的隐喻:生命、死亡、未知。
