「God made man equal.」「上天造人，生而平等。」
再看完一次奇異恩典 Amazing Grace (2006) 。在劇中最後，法案通過表決的那一幕，令我紅了眼眶。男主角在最後是如何透過迂迴戰術、讓廢奴法案通過，過程值得玩味，有興趣的人不妨看看這部電影。
「When people speak of great men, they think of men like Napoleon. Men of violence. Rarely do they think of peaceful men. But contrast the reception they'll receive when they return home from their battles. Napoleon will arrive in pomp and in power. A man who's achieved the very summit of earthly ambition. Yet his dreams will be haunted by the oppressions of war. William Wilberforce, however… will return to his family… laying his head on his pillow… and remember… the slave trade is no more.」
「大家談到偉人可能想到拿破崙，那些呼風喚雨的人，很少人想到默默付出的人，但這些人反而會獲得尊敬，特別是歷經奮戰歸來的。拿破崙的凱歸盛況，或許集尊榮於一身，但他的夢想因戰爭變成夢魘，然而，威廉威伯福思，他會平靜地返家，躺在自己的枕頭上，回想著…，奴隸制度終於結束了。」
