正如我提到過的,我認為我必須幫助所有人保護他們的言論自由,儘管我不同意他們的意見。我必須傾聽並研究可信賴的觀點;有時我會從中學到很多。任何個人或國家都無法壟斷智慧或才能。我想,一個人或一個家變得驕傲自滿之時,便是它令人深感憂慮之時。對他人的觀點置若罔聞的人,顯示出他在自己的觀點上完全缺乏自信。

毫無疑問,美國人所固有的權利是在所有領域中享有平等的經濟機會、保護適當的生活條件、用以培養孩子的道德和精神的足夠的經濟基礎、在法律和上帝面前平等的身份與朋友自由交往的權利。只有當人們能自由地思考和發言時,這些權利才能得到保護和發展。如果我試圖阻止一個背景不同的公民在任何話題上自由地表達自己的想法,我就違背了民主的基本原則。我已經對與我密切相關的問題上闡述了自己的一些想法。我想我們應該樂觀地看待美國理想的將來,只要人們能夠並將毫無畏懼地說出他們的信念。

交友的唯一方式(2)

Life is not a one…way street。 What I do; what I say even what I think; inevitably has a direct effect on my relationships with others。 I am certain that in the degree that my attitude towards others has given convincing proof of loyalty; sincerity; honesty; courtesy and fairness; I have encouraged in others the same attitude towards me。 Respe
