It is our duty still to endeavor to avoid war; but if it shall actually take place, no matter by whom brought on, we must defend ourselves. If our house be on fire, without inquiring whether it was fired from within or without, we must try to extinguish it.

  • -- Thomas Jefferson 托马斯·杰斐逊

我们仍然有责任努力避免战争;但是，如果这事真的要发生，不管是谁引起的，我们必须为自己辩护。如果我们的房子着火了，我们必须设法扑灭它，而不必问它是从里面还是外面着火的。
