I elect to stay on the soil of which I was born and on the plot of ground which I have fairly bought and honestly paid for. Don't advise me to leave, and don't add insult to injury by telling me it's for my own good; of that I am to be the judge.

  • -- Robert Purvis 罗伯特·普维斯

我选择留在我出生的那片土地上,留在我公平购买并诚实支付的那块土地上。别劝我离开,也别告诉我这是为了我好,这是对我的侮辱;我要作这事的审判官。
