所以我才不能

我通常不会
I am not in the habit of
对一件事情的缘由再三追问

我最大的不幸将是嫁入一个
My greatest misfortune would be to marry into a family
以我为耻的家庭
who would carry me as their shame
就像我被迫以我母亲为耻一样
as I have been required to carry my own mother.
她的罪行就是生为黑人
Her apparent crime to be born negro
而我则是她的罪证

也不愿否认自己

What precisely are you looking for?
我做了所有可以让你
I have enabled every rule of convention
找到自我的事情
so that you would know exactly where you belong
但这一切对你来说还是不够
and yet little appears enough for you.
要是没有法律呢 爸爸
And what if there were not a rule, Papa?
要是不存在允许你收养我的法律呢
What if the rule that allowed you to take me did not exist?
你会把我扔回贫民窟吗
Would you have returned me to the slums?
你很勇敢
You are courageous.
当你遇到你坚信的事情

法官和议会难道没有责任
Does the Bench and Parliament
维护并且立法来促进我们的道德准则
not have a duty to uphold and create the laws
而不是阻碍它的进步吗
that progress our morality not retard it?
即使不是为了保护我们不受他人侵害
If not to protect us from
也该防止我们自我伤害
others then to protect us from ourselves.
允许我们贬低
Laws that allow us to
其他任何人的人性的法律都不是法律
diminish the humanity of anybody are not laws.
它们是犯罪的根源
They are frameworks for crime.
我不在乎你作为一个个人
I do not care if you, as an individual,
是否有人性或是有良知
are without character or conscience.
但是如果一个国家的法律鼓励而不是约束

琳赛小姐不是奴隶
Miss Lindsay is not a slave.
真是谢天谢地
By the very grace of God.
这件事与琳赛小姐无关
This is not about Miss Lindsay.
当然有关
Of course it is.
这与我们所有人都有关
It’s about all of us.
与所有事情都有关 所有重要的事情
It’s about everything. Everything that’s important.
