Each man must for himself alone decide what is right and what is wrong, which course is patriotic and which isn't. You cannot shirk this and be a man. To decide against your conviction is to be an unqualified and excusable traitor, both to yourself and to your country, let me label you as they may.

每个人必须自己决定什么是对的，什么是错的，什么是爱国的，什么不是。你不能逃避，要像个男人。无论对你自己还是对你的国家，对你的定罪作出反对的决定都是一个毫无资格和可以原谅的叛徒，让我给你贴上这样的标签吧。
