把这一句，留给此刻的你
Facts are generally over esteemed. For most practical purposes, a thing is what men think it is. When they judged the earth flat, it was flat. As long as men thought slavery tolerable, it was tolerable. We live down here among shadows, shadows among shadows.
事实往往被过分看重。就大多数实际目的而言，一件事就是人们认为它是什么。当他们判断地球是平的时候，它是平的。只要人们认为奴隶制是可以忍受的，奴隶制就是可以忍受的。我们生活在阴影中，阴影中。
