At a party, Mark Twain sat opposite a woman. Politely, he told this man, “You are so beautiful!”
The woman did not appreciate, but also said proudly: “Unfortunately I have no way to say the same compliment to him!”
Mark Twain was very calm, saying, “No problem, you can be like me, say a lie.”
The woman listened, too embarrassed, had to bow down without saying a word.
Small hint:
The rock you throw at it, the person it hits will always be yourself;
You say harsh words, will eventually take on the same humiliation.
What do you draw from this story?
