Clever promise

One day a father was teaching his son and said,

"The keys to your success are keeping your word and cleverness.

Once you give somebody a promise, you must carry it out on matter what will happen.

This is called 'keeping one's words.'

"What is clever? asked his son.

"Clever is that you'll never make such a promise, " the father answered.

一天,父亲教育儿子说:"一个人成功的关键就是严守诺言和足够聪明。

一旦你给了别人承诺,无论发生什么事,

你都得实现它,这个就叫'守诺言'。"

父亲回答:"聪明就是任何时候都别做这样的承诺。"
