94.让你的才能高深莫测

让你的才能高深莫测。如果明智之人想赢得人们的尊敬,就不让人彻底了解他的学识和能力。他让你知道他,可是不让你了解他。智者一定不让任何人知道他才华的极限,以免别人对他失望。他绝不会让人有机会彻底探知他的根底。无论他的才能有多大,人们觉得他的能力高深莫测,也比知道他的根底产生更多的崇拜。

94.Keep the extent of your abilities unknown

Keep the extent of your abilities unknown. The wise man does not allow his knowledge and abilities to be sounded to the bottom, if he desires to be honoured by all. He allows you to know them but not to comprehend them. No one must know the extent of his abilities, lest he be disappointed. No one ever has an opportunity of fathoming him entirely. For guesses and doubts about the extent of his talents arouse more veneration than accurate knowledge of them, be they ever so great.
