The race of mankind would perish did they cease to aid each other. We cannot exist without mutual help. All therefore that need aid have a right to ask it from their fellow-men; and no one who has the power of granting can refuse it without guilt.

如果他们停止互相帮助，人类就会灭亡。没有相互帮助，我们就不能生存。因此，所有需要援助的人都有权向他们的同胞要求援助;有权柄赐给人的，没有一个人能不怀罪恶感地拒绝。
