I love my man as my fellow; but his scepter, real, or usurped, extends not to me, unless the reason of an individual demands my homage; and even then the submission is to reason, and not to man.

  • -- Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin 玛丽·葛德文

我爱我的男人如同爱我的同胞;但是他的权杖,不管是真的还是被篡夺的,都不会伸向我,除非出于个人的原因需要我的尊敬;就是这样,也是顺服理性,不是顺服人。
