My esoteric doctrine, is that if you entertain any doubt, it is safest to take the unpopular side in the first instance. Transit from the unpopular, is easy... but from the popular to the unpopular is so steep and rugged that it is impossible to maintain it.

  • -- Lord Melbourne 墨尔本勋爵

我的深奥学说是,如果你有任何疑问,最安全的做法是首先站在不受欢迎的一边。从不受欢迎的过渡,很容易…但从受欢迎的到不受欢迎的都是如此陡峭和崎岖,不可能维持下去。
