I love Allen like a brother and except for the times when we’re debating on the court, we’re great friends. It doesn’t necessarily mean that we share the same interests, same CDs, same cloths, etc. A friend doesn’t have to be perfect. We get along well with each other because we both say what’s on our minds. Of course, we disagree from time to time. It’s necessary for friends to disagree since a helpful discussion enlightens our minds. We don’t have to keep peace all the time. But as a necessity, we should respect each other as a person.

我像愛兄弟一樣地愛著艾倫,除了我們在法庭上辯論的之外,我們是好朋友。這并不意味著我們有共同的利益,分享同樣的CD、同樣的衣服等等。朋友不必是完美的。我們相處得很好,因為我們都能說出心里的感受。當(dāng)然,我們有時候也會意見不合。朋友之間意見不合是必要的,因為一場有益的討論可以啟迪我們的思維。我們不必總是和平相處。但是我們必須把彼此當(dāng)做人那樣來尊重。
