Silence

切沈默者都是消化不良的。

我也覺得，最粗野的語言、最粗野的書信，都比沈默更良性、更正派。那些保持沈默者，差不多總是缺乏心靈的精細和謙恭；沈默乃是一種抗辯，忍氣吞聲必然弄出一種壞性格，——甚至會敗壞胃口。一切沈默者都是消化不良的。

I also believe that the coarsest language and the coarsest letters are better than silence; those who remain silent almost always lack spiritual delicacy and humility. Silence is a form of protest, and swallowing one’s anger inevitably leads to a bad temperament— it can even spoil one’s appetite. All silent people suffer from indigestion.
