I will not attack your doctrines nor your creeds if they accord liberty to me. If they hold thought to be dangerous - if they aver that doubt is a crime, then I attack them one and all, because they enslave the minds of men.

  • -- Robert G. Ingersoll 格索

如果你们的教义和信条给了我自由,我就不会攻击它们。如果他们认为危险——如果他们断言怀疑是一种犯罪,那么我就会对他们进行全面的攻击,因为他们奴役了人类的思想。
