雙語智慧書·言語溫軟，舉止優(yōu)雅

267．言語溫軟，舉止優(yōu)雅
　　言語溫軟，舉止優(yōu)雅。利箭傷人身體，惡言傷人心靈。甜美的糕點(diǎn)香氣撲鼻。懂得說好聽的話是高超的生活藝術(shù)。你能用言語來為很多東西付賬，還能憑言語無所不能。因此，我們要在言語上下功夫，高貴的談吐可以產(chǎn)生勇氣與力量。你要滿嘴塞蜜，讓你的言語特別甜美，甚至使你的敵人都喜歡。如想討人喜歡，你就要和藹可親。


267．Silken words, sugared manners
　Silken words, sugared manners. Arrows pierce the body, insults the soul. Sweet pastry perfumes the breath. It is a great art in life to know how to sell wind. Most things are paid for in words, and by them you can remove impossibilities. Thus we deal in air, and a royal breath can produce courage and power. Always have your mouth full of sugar to sweeten your words, so that even your enemies enjoy them. To please one must be peaceful.
