translate English to French: And in the harsh law imposed upon him before he can understand it, will he see anything but the caprice and hatred of a man who is trying to torment him? Is it strange that he rebels and hates you in turn?
Le coeur ne reçoit de lois que de lui-même; en voulant l’enchaîner on le dégage; on l’enchaîne en le laissant libre.
