Among all Chinese societies in the world,Taiwan is the only one that has a comprehensive spectrum of long-developed freedom. We have the freedom of speech, freedom of contract,freedom of research, freedom of press, freedom of Internet, freedom of exercising trade, and most of all, the freedom and democracy of electing our own President,Congressmen,county Mayors and so on.Such freedom and respect of human dignity are the key values that are behind all the great achievements of Taiwan.So when we ask you to support Taiwan,we actually are asking you to support the freedom and human dignity behind as values to our society.This is a feature you cannot ever find in any other Chinese societies around the world.This is why we cherish it,this is why we should support it, and this is the fundamental faith we hold as we celebrate our National day here.

格主案：摘錄自朱敬一《維尼、跳虎與台灣民主》頁56–57，新北市：印刻文學生活雜誌出版股份有限公司，2021年1月。朱敬一在自序裡說，這是一本寫給年輕人的書。我個人以為，任何人都值得一讀，只是朱敬一更寄希望於我國的年輕人吧！
