On China（《论中国》）—基辛格

American exceptionalism is missionary. It holds that the United States has an obligation to spread its values to every part of the world. China‘s exceptionalism is cultural. China does not proselytize; it does not claim that its contemporary institutions are relevant outside China……in other words, a kind of cultural universality.

美国的例外主义是传经布道式的，认为美国有义务向世界的每个角落传播其价值观。中国的例外主义是文化性的，中国不试图改变他国的信仰，不对海外推行本国的现行体制……这是一种文化上的普世观。
