影片《Fair Game》的一段臺詞

Now, if that makes you angry or feel misrepresented, do something about it. When Benjamin Franklin left Independence Hall just after the second drafting, he was approached by a woman on the street, the woman said, 「Mr. Franklin, what manner of government have you bequeathed us?」 And Franklin said, 「a republic, madam, if you can keep it.」 The responsibility of a country is not in the hands of privileged few. We are strong, and we are free from the tyranny as long as each one of us remembers his or her duty as a citizen. Whether it’s to report a pothole at the top of your street or lies in States of the Union address, speak out! Ask those questions. Demand that truth. Democracy is not a free ride, man. I』m here to tell you. But, this is where we live, and if we do our job, and this is where our children will live. God bless America.


譯文(非我翻譯)：

      現在，如果你們認爲自己被誤導，覺得憤慨，那就行動起來。班傑明•富蘭克林第二次起草憲法之後，走出了獨立廳。在街上，一個女人向他走來，說道：「富蘭克林先生，你要給我們一個什麽樣的政府？」富蘭克林說：「一個共和政府，但要你們去保持。」一個國家的責任，並不在少數特權人物身上。要讓國家強大，不受獨裁統治，就需要我們每個公民不要忘記自己身爲公民的責任。不管是看到街道上的坑坑窪窪，還是看到國情咨文中的謊言，都要說出來，提出質疑，要求得到真相。民主不是輕易就能得到的，這是事實。但這是我們生活的國度，只有我們盡到自己的責任，我們的後代才能繼續在這裡生活。美國萬歲。
