把这一句，留给此刻的你

Many politicians lay it down as a self evident proposition that no people ought to be free until they are fit to use their freedom. The maxim is worthy of the fool in the old story who resolved not to go into the water until he had learned to swim.

许多政治家把它作为一个不言自明的主张，即在人们能够充分利用他们的自由之前，没有人应该是自由的。这句格言就像古老故事里的傻瓜，他决定在学会游泳之前不下水。

— Thomas Babington Macaulay 麦考莱
