A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
同意
Consent
The laws are still very unclear. Cells are still taken from people without consent - a lot of people don't realize it.
法律仍然很不明确。细胞仍然是在未经同意的情况下从人身上提取的——很多人没有意识到这一点。
What we seek is the reign of law, based upon the consent of the governed and sustained by the organized opinion of mankind.
我们所寻求的是法治,其基础是被统治的人民的同意,并由人类有组织的舆论予以支持。
Even if the whole earth and sea were turned to gold, they could hardly satisfy the avarice of a woman... You can more easily scratch a diamond with your fingernail than you can by any human ingenuity get a woman to consent to giving any of her savings.
即使整个大地和大海都变成金子,也无法满足一个女人的贪婪……用指甲刮钻石比用人类的聪明才智让一个女人同意捐出她的积蓄要容易得多。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Nobody can hurt me without my permission.

众人都知道白发是荣耀的冠冕。只有尊重的对象才不会引起嫉妒。

没有你的同意,没有人能使你自卑。
To think well and to consent to obey someone giving good advice are the same thing.
