雙語(yǔ)智慧書(shū)·學(xué)會(huì)趨利避害

31．學(xué)會(huì)趨利避害
　　學(xué)會(huì)趨利避害。霉運(yùn)往往是對(duì)愚蠢的懲罰，且極易傳染。不要以惡小而開(kāi)門(mén)，因?yàn)榇髳和鶗?huì)隨之而來(lái)。玩牌的訣竅是：你應(yīng)明白自己何時(shí)該舍棄某張牌。在過(guò)去的一局中，最大的牌也比不上現(xiàn)在最小的王牌。假如你舉棋不定，記得結(jié)交智慧而審慎的人，他們遲早會(huì)贏。

31．Select the lucky and avoid the unlucky
　Select the lucky and avoid the unlucky. Ill-luck is generally the penalty of folly, and there is no disease so contagious to those who share in it. Never open the door to a lesser evil, for other and greater ones invariably slink in after it. The greatest skill at cards is to know when to discard; the smallest of current trumps is worth more than the ace of trumps of the last game. When in doubt, follow the suit of the wise and prudent; sooner or later they will win the odd trick.
