Freedom is not worth having if it does not connote freedom to err. It passes my comprehension how human beings, be they ever so experienced and able, can delight in depriving other human beings of that precious right.

  • -- Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi 甘地

如果自由不意味着犯错的自由，那么它就不值得拥有。我无法理解，人类，无论他们多么有经验和能力，如何能以剥夺他人的这种宝贵权利为乐。
