The truly superior are modest and reticent, like wooden statues, trained to perfection. The proverbs say, "A bottle of vinegar only half full makes the loudest noise when shook"; "The brave don't fight over small matters"; and "Mature stalks of rice bend downward."
俗諺云：「半瓶醋響」、「大勇不事小鬥」、「成熟的稻穗向下低垂」，都是同樣的道理。
