The importance of silence 沉默的意义

It seems most times the problem we have with ourselves as humans is the problem of saying what is not yet ready to be put forth. We all seem to have this problem, and most times there are countless reasons why we do this. To make people know that we are somebody who also has his own worth.

似乎，大多数时候，我们人类最大的问题，就是还没想清楚，就把话说出口。好像我们每个人都有这个问题，通常来说，我们这样做，有很多原因。我们想让别人知道我们的价值。

We try to make ourselves look big, try to talk others down, and sometimes gain some respect aggressively, some godlike reverence to ourselves.

我们想让自己看起来很棒，我们想说服别人，我们想强迫别人尊重我们、崇拜我们。

We're ready to say everything that can be said to have a stand on a position that is of worth, and make people see us as important too. And in the process, we say more than we actually should.

只要有机会说话，我们就会说话，表明自己的立场及其价值，以此来让别人觉得我们很重要。在这个过程中，我们说得太多了。
