雙語金句﹕沒獨裁者能避自由人權

【明報專訊】"Mankind's quest for freedom and human rights can never stop. No dictator can in the long run find shelter from this wind of history. It was this wind which led people to crawl up onto the Berlin Wall and tear it down. It is the wind that is now blowing in the Arab world."
「人類追求自由和人權，是不可能停止的。沒有獨裁者長遠能避開這股歷史之風。是這股風引領人們爬上柏林圍牆，將它撕開推倒。是這股風正在阿拉伯世界吹起。」
挪威諾貝爾委員會主席亞格蘭（Thorbjoern Jagland）昨在和平獎頒獎禮上，預言敘利亞總統巴沙爾將繼也門總統薩利赫之後，屈服於追求自由之風，接受民主改變。
