良知與自信
章太炎 ( 1869~1936 )

良知：一種細微的，平靜的聲音，
它讓少數派坦白。仁者必有勇，誅暴必用武。

須有自信之能力，當從自己良心上認定是非，
不可以眾人之是非為從違。

Conscience and Confidence
Zhang Taiyan (1869 - 1936)
English translation: Miao Guang

Conscience is a subtle and quiet voice which enables the
minority to confess. A benevolent one is certainly also
courageous, while force is a necessary means to punish the villain.

One must have the confidence to tell right from wrong out
of his own conscience without being influenced by the
majority’s decision.
