反奴隶制的理想主义者可能更喜欢生活在一些更好的世界中，就像所有这些地方一样，这太好了。然而，1790年的美国国家是一个现实世界，充满了像奴隶制这样的遗产，因此太真实了。
(Antislavery idealists might prefer to live in some better world, which like all such places was too good to be true. The American nation in 1790, however, was a real world, laden with legacies like slavery, and therefore too true to be good.)
