The test of courage comes when we are in the minority. The test of tolerance comes when we are in the majority.

  • -- Ralph W. Sockman 拉尔夫·W·索克曼

当我们处于少数时，勇气的考验就来了。当我们占多数的时候，宽容的考验就来了。

It is bad to be oppressed by a minority, but it is worse to be oppressed by a majority. For there is a reserve of latent power in the masses which, if it is called into play, the minority can seldom resist. But from the absolute will of an entire people there is no appeal, no redemption, no refuge but treason.

被少数人压迫是不好的，但被多数人压迫更坏。因为群众中有一种潜在的力量，叫它发挥作用，少数人是很难抗拒的。但出于全体人民的绝对意志，除了叛国之外，没有任何呼吁，没有任何救赎，没有任何庇护。
