喂，如果我告诉你什么事情，你能答应保守秘密吗？

Look, if I tell you something, will you promise to keep it under your hat?

《柯林斯英汉双解大词典》

又一次这个哥哥抗绝了他自己并且答应继续等待；但是他说，“下一条小溪，我一定要喝水了，无论你会说什么，我已经太渴了。”

Again the brother denied himself and promised to wait; but he said, "at the next stream I must drink, say what you will, my thirst is so great."

我保证，每次你答应别人什么事的时候，就意味着，无论你愿不愿意，你必须拒绝另一件事。

Remember, every time we say yes to something, we must necessarily say no to something else, whether we want to or not. I guarantee it.
