做任何事情都有适当、不适当的时机，机智就是要在适当时机做适当的事和说适当的话。机智和礼节有很密切的关系，一个人不可能只具备其中一种而缺少另一种特质，机智是一项无价的处世技巧，表现机智和缺乏机智，同样会让人看得见。

If these faults seem small to you,consider how quickly they compound one another.Would you want to be associated with someone who displayed just three of them regularly? They reveal a lack of perception and careful consideration that undermines one's confidence in another's mental powers. Anyone who desires an attractive personality will avoid them all.
