摘要: 保罗·怀特；周文标译

<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

为恶而畏人知，恶中尤有善路；为善而急人知，善处即是恶根。

If a man does a bad thing and fears that others will find out, it shows that, despite his wickedness, he still has a conscience. If a man does a good deed and is anxious for others to know about it, it shows that in the midst of his benevolence lurks a tendency to evil.

（保罗·怀特译）

Vice concealed is more harmful than that revealed, but benevolence known by all inferior to that known to none.
