做邪惡之事是卑微的,做好事而不招致危險很常見,但是好的人,即便面臨一切風險,也會做偉大崇高的行為。“To do an evil act is base. To do a good one without incurring danger, is common enough. But it is part of a good man to do great and noble deeds though he risks everything in doing them.”

“To do an evil act is base. To do a good one without incurring danger, is common enough. But it is part of a good man to do great and noble deeds though he risks everything in doing them.”
– Plutarch, Greek Historian
