He who is void of virtuous attachments in private life is, or very soon will be, void of all regard for his country. There is seldom an instance of a man guilty of betraying his country, who had not before lost the feeling of moral obligations in his private connections.
一个人如果在私生活中没有高尚的情操，那么他就会，或者很快就会，对他的国家失去所有的尊重。很少有一个人因为背叛祖国而感到内疚，他以前从未在私人关系中丧失过道德义务的感觉。
