双语智慧书·从不慌乱
52．从不慌乱
从不慌乱。绝不让自己窘迫是审慎之人的一大目标。这也是一个有着一颗高贵的心的真正的人的标志，因为只有胸怀宽阔的人才不易情绪失衡。激情乃是内心的玩笑，任何过度的激情都会削弱我们的谨慎。假如你任其流露，将有损你的名声。因此，让我们主宰自己，无论是一帆风顺还是举步维艰，都不因任何事情失去自控而损害名声。相反，要表现得泰然自若而增进我们的名声。
52．Never be put out
Never be put out. It is a great aim of prudence never to be embarrassed. It is the sign of a real man. of a noble heart, for magnanimity is not easily put off ballance. The passions are the humors of the soul, and every excess in them weakens prudence. If they overflow through the mouth, the reputation will be in danger. Let us therefore be so much and so great a master over ourselves that neither in the most fortunate nor in the most adverse circumstances can anything cause our reputation injury by disturbing our self-possession, but rather enhance it by showing his superiority.
