在伦敦闻名世界的威斯敏 斯特 大教堂地下室的墓碑林中,有一块名扬世界的墓碑。
碑文如下:
When I was young and free and my
imagination had no limits,I dreamed of changing the world.
As I grew older and wiser, I
discovered the world would not change, so I shortened my sights somewhat and
decided to change only my country. But it, too, seemed immovable.
As I grew into my twilight years,
in one last desperate attempt, I settled for changing only my family, those
closest to me, but alas, they would have none of it.
And now, as I lie on my deathbed, I suddenly realize:
If I had only changed myself
first, then by example I would have changed my family.
From their inspiration and
encouragement, I would then have been able to better my country, and who knows,
I may have even changed the world.
