If a man is thought-free, fancy-free, imagination-free, that which is not never for a long time appearing to be to him, unwise rulers or reformers cannot fatally interrupt him.
一个人若思想自由、幻想自由、想象自由,虚妄之物在他眼中从不长久冒充真实,那么不明智的统治者或改革者就无法从根本上阻断他的生活。
— Henry David Thoreau · On the Duty of Civil Disobedience —
