说得好。阿克顿这句话是针对当时的“教权”而言的,西方国家里没有东方“绝对君权”的存在。

其实他更有分量的是后面那句,“Great men are almost always bad men, even when they exercise influence and not authority, still more when you superadd the tendency or the certainty of corruption by authority. There is no worse heresy than that the office sanctifies the holder of it.”
