도산 안창호 (島山 安昌浩)

Dosan Ahn Chang-ho

1878. 11. 9. – 1938. 3. 10.

한국어:

51. 대한 민족 전체가 대한의 독립을 믿으니 대한이 독립될 것이요, 세계의 공의가 대한의 독립을 원하니 대한의 독립이 될 것이요, 하늘이 대한의 독립을 명하니 대한은 반드시 독립할 것이다.
 

52. 나는 진정으로 일본이 망하기를 원치 않고 좋은 나라가 되기를 원한다.   이웃인 대한 나라를 유린하는 것은 결코 일본의 이익이 아니 될 것이다.  원한 품은 이천만을 억지로 국민 중에 포함하는 것보다 우정 있는 이천만을 이웃 국민으로 두는 것이 일본의 득일 것이다.  그러므로 대한의 독립을 주장하는 것은 동양의 평화와 일본의 복리까지도 위하는 것이다.

53. 책사(冊肆)도 학교다.  책은 교사다.  책사는 더 무서운 학교요, 책은 더 무서운 교사다.

54. 나 하나를 건전한 인격으로 만드는 것이 우리 민족을 건전하게 하는 유일한 길이다.
 

55. 우리 중에 인물이 없는 것은 인물이 되려고 마음 먹고 힘쓰는 사람이 없는 까닭이다.  인물이 없다고 한탄하는 그 사람 자신이 왜 인물될 공부를 아니 하는가.
 

56. 동지를 믿고 속아라.  세상에 마음 놓고 믿는 동지가 있다는 것처럼 행복이 또 어디 있으리오.
 

57. 너도 사랑을 공부하고 나도 사랑을 공부하자.  남자도 여자도 우리 이천만 한민족은 서로 사랑하는 민족이 되자.
 

58. 서로 사랑하면 살고, 서로 싸우면 죽는다.
 

59. 죽더라도 동포끼리는 무저항주의를 쓰자.  때리면 맞고 욕하면 먹자.   동포끼리만은 악을 악으로 대하지 말고 오직 사랑하자.

60. 무실 역행(務實力行)으로 생명을 삼는 충의남녀(忠義男女)를 단합하여 정의(情誼)를 돈수(敦修)하며 덕·체·지 삼육을 동맹 수련하여 건전한 인격을 지으며 신성한 단체를 이루어 우리 민족의 전도 대업(前途大業)의 기초를 준비함.

English:

1. 51. As the entire Korean nation believes in the independence of Korea, Korea will become independent. If the world's justice wants the independence of Korea, it will become the independence of Korea.  Since Heaven commands the independence of Korea, Korea will surely become independent. 

1. 52. I really do not want Japan to fall, but to be a good country.  It will never be in Japan's interest to violate the neighboring country of Korea.  Rather than forcing 20 million people to include a grudge among the people, it would be a good thing for Japan to have 20 million people as a neighbor.  Therefore, asserting the independence of Korea is for the peace of the East and even the welfare of Japan. 

1. 53. The bookstore is also a school. Books are teachers.  Bookstores are scarier schools, and books are scarier teachers. 

1. 54. Making one of me a wholesome personality is the only way to make our nation sound. 

1. 55. The reason we do not have a great person is that no one is trying to be a great person.  Why doesn't the person who laments that there is no person studying to become a great person himself? 

1. 56. Believe in your comrades and be deceived. Just as there are comrades in the world who trust with heart, where else can happiness be? 

1. 57. Let's study love and I also study love.  Both men and women, let's become a people who love each other. 

1. 58. If you love each other, you live, and if you fight each other, you die. 

1. 59. Even if you die, let's use non-resistance among compatriots.  If somebody hits you, let's get hit, and somebody insults you, let’s just listen to it.  Let's not treat evil as evil, but only love among the compatriots. 

1. 60. By uniting the men and women of loyalty who take their lives through sincere and fruitful performance, we need to unite the men and women of loyalty to practice friendly love, and train alliances of virtue, physical, and intellectual abilities to build a healthy character and form a sacred organization to prepare the foundation for our nation's great future business.
