刺客
Assassin
War is the statesman's game, the priest's delight, the lawyer's jest, the hired assassin's trade.
战争是政治家的游戏,是牧师的乐趣,是律师的笑话,是受雇刺客的职业。
I think in the corridors of power these dangerous kinds of orders are issued in a much more vague way, passed down two or three levels of command before they're given to the assassin.
我认为,在权力走廊里,这些危险的命令以一种更加模糊的方式下达,在下达给刺客之前,要经过两三个级别的命令。
