That's something like our situation. If you're willing to look for some way in which the other side has shown goodwill, and upon the basis of that bit of goodwill you respond with a bit of goodwill of your own, then little by little, ever so gradually, you can defuse a conflict.
──如果你願意從裡面找找看對方有沒有善意，然後你抓住這一點點善意，再回應出一點點善意，慢慢的，一點一滴的，一場衝突浩劫就可以消弭於無形。
