122.言行应有威信

言行应有威信。如果做到这点则可在许多地方获得一定的地位,且能提前赢得人们的敬重。言谈、神色,甚至步伐,处处都显示出威信的力量。征服人心是伟大的胜利。它并非来自任何愚蠢的自以为是或者夸夸其谈,而是来自恰当的威严——只有才智过人、品德高尚之人才拥有这种气质。

122.Distinction in speech and action

Distinction in speech and action. By this you gain a position in many places and carry esteem beforehand. It shows itself in everything, in talk, in look, even in gait. It is a great victory to conquer men's hearts. It does not arise from any foolish presumption or pompous talk, but in a becoming tone of authority born of superior talent combined with true merit.
