I've come to understand and to believe that each of us is more than the worst thing we've ever done.

但我們本身最終不會被科技所評價，也不會被設計所衡量，我們也不會被智慧和哲學來打分。
Ultimately, you judge the character of a society, not by how they treat their rich and the powerful and the privileged,
最終，人們會評價我們這個社會，不是根據我們怎么款待富人，有特權的人，
but by how they treat the poor, the condemned, the incarcerated.
