Fear is not in the habit of speaking truth; when perfect sincerity is expected, perfect freedom must be allowed; nor has anyone who is apt to be angry when he hears the truth any cause to wonder that he does not hear it.

  • -- Tacitus 塔西托斯

恐惧不是说真话的习惯;当完全的真诚被期待时,完全的自由必须被允许;凡是听到真理时容易生气的人,也没有理由怀疑自己没有听到真理。
