If a man be gracious and courteous to strangers, it shows he is a citizen of the world, and that his heart is no island, cut off from other lands, but a continent, that joins to them.
一个人若对陌生人亲切有礼,就表明他是世界公民;他的心不是与别处隔绝的孤岛,而是与其他土地相连的大陆。
— Francis Bacon · Essays (1625) · Of Goodness and Goodness of Nature —
