He has no right to his life when his duty calls him to resign it. Other men are bound... to deprive him of life or liberty, if that should appear in any case to be indispensably necessary to prevent a greater evil.

  • -- William Godwin 威廉·葛德文

当他的职责要求他辞职时,他没有生命的权利。其他男人被束缚……剥夺他的生命或自由,如果在任何情况下,这对于防止更大的罪恶是必不可少的。
