I have an almost complete disregard of precedent, and a faith in the possibility of something better. It irritates me to be told how things have always been done. I defy the tyranny of precedent. I go for anything new that might improve the past.

  • -- Clara Barton 克拉拉巴顿

我几乎完全无视先例，相信会有更好的结果。有人告诉我事情总是这样做，我很生气。我反对先例的暴政。我追求任何可以改变过去的新事物。
