有关穆勒论自由的点校本同段
No society in which these liberties are not mainly respected is free, whatever form of government it has; and none is completely free in which they don’t exist absolute and unqualified. The only freedom that deserves the name is the freedom to pursue our own good in our own way, so long as we don’t try to deprive others of their good or hinder their efforts to obtain it. Each is the proper guardian of his own health of body, mind, and spirit. Mankind gain more from allowing each other to live in the way that seems good to themselves than they would from compelling each to live in the way that seems good to the rest.
此等自由未获大致尊重的社会,不论其政府形式为何,绝不是自由的;如若此等自由未能以绝对且无条件的方式存在,则相应社会绝非完全自由的。唯一实称其名的自由,是以我们自己的方式寻求我们自己的善,只要我们未行剥夺他人的善或妨碍他人寻求善。人都是个人健康的合适监护人,或者是身体健康,或者是心灵健康,或者是精神健康。允许个人各自为了看似他们的善而生活,比之于,逼迫个人为了看似他人的善而生活,人类获益更多。
