1. When you are angry say nothing

愤怒时请保持沉默

If we speak in anger we will definitely aggravate the situation and quite likely hurt the feelings of others. If we speak in anger we will find that people respond in kind, creating a spiral of negative anger. If we can remain outwardly silent it gives time for the emotion of anger to leave us.

人在愤怒时说出的话必定是火上浇油，很容易伤害他人感情。我们发现，在愤怒时讲话，对方也会消极回应，使气氛更加紧张。如果能保持沉默，或许愤怒反倒会渐渐平息。

“When angry count to ten before you speak. If very angry, count to one hundred.” - Thomas Jefferson

“愤怒的时候，先数到十再开口；如果非常愤怒，那就数到一百吧。”——托马斯·杰斐逊
