I've talked to so many people who I can tell are really good people, but who I tire of talking to simply because they don't seem to hear anything I say.

与我交谈过的很多人，他们心地善良，但我却不大愿意与他们说更多的话。这当中的原因正是在于这些人看上去似乎并没有听进任何我所说的话。

Thou shalt be a good listener, for only when you listen do you hear different ideas from your own. It is hard to learn something new when you are talking, and some people do know more than you do.

只有能听取不同意见，不然在你谈论问题时，人家知道的实际上比你多，你就很难学到新东西。

It's never a good idea to bad-mouth someone, because that other person may hear you, or people that you are talking to might tell that person - especially if that person is your boss!

说对某人不好的话从来都不是个好主意，因为其他人可能会听到你说的话，或你的倾诉者可能会告诉那个人-——特别是当你所说的那个人是你的老板时！
