9181. WRONG, Resistance to.—
We have
borne patiently a great deal of wrong, on
the consideration that if nations go to war
for every degree of injury, there would never
be peace on earth. But when patience has
begotten false estimates of its motives, when
wrongs are pressed because it is believed they
will be borne, resistance becomes morality.—
To Madame de Stael. Washington ed. v, 133.
