把这一句,留给此刻的你
Revenge often backfires in being regarded by its victim as retroactive justification for the wrong, which prompted the revenge.
复仇往往适得其反,因为受害者认为复仇是对错误的追溯性辩护,这促使了复仇。
— Shraga Silverstein 施拉格·西尔弗斯坦

法律不是律师的私有财产,正义也不是法官和陪审团的专属领域。归根结底,真正的正义不是法庭和法律书籍的问题,而是我们每个人对自由和相互尊重的承诺。
Jimmy Carter
吉米·卡特
When we violate the law ourselves, whatever short-term advantage may be gained, we are obviously encouraging others to violate the law; we thus encourage disorder and instability and thereby do incalculable damage to our own long-term interests.
当我们自己违法时,无论短期利益如何,我们明显是在鼓励他人违法;因此,我们鼓励混乱和不稳定,从而对我们自己的长期利益造成无法估量的损害。

If you are patient in a moment of anger, you will escape a hundred days of sorrow.
如果你能在愤怒的时刻保持耐心,你就能逃避一百天的悲伤。
佚名
Forcing people to be generous isn't humanitarian, effective, compassionate or moral. Only acts that are truly voluntary for all concerned can be truly compassionate.
强迫人们慷慨并不是人道主义的、有效的、富有同情心的或道德的。只有对所有相关的人真正自愿的行为,才能真正富有同情心。
Harry Browne
布朗
Those who intend on becoming great should love neither themselves nor their own things, but only what is just, whether it happens to be done by themselves or others.
那些想要变得伟大的人,既不应该爱自己,也不应该爱自己的东西,而应该只爱正义的东西,无论是自己做的还是别人做的。
Plato
柏拉图
For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.
因为自由不仅仅是挣脱自己的枷锁,而是以尊重和增进他人自由的方式生活。
