Gossip: Have You Heard?
Hello. You know me. I am in your office, at your parties, and on your phone. I am cunning and cruel. I have the power to ruin your life. For amusement, I will break your heart and cause you to have sleepless 1 nights. I have made governments collapse 2 and marriages fall apart.
Since I have no face, you have no protection against becoming my victim. Try and find me if you dare. But I leave no trace and have no friends. My power grows over time. People believe me the more I am quoted. Once I encounter your reputation, it will be changed forever. Who am I?
I am Gossip. I have existed since people could talk, and I will be here long after you are gone. So remember to ask yourself the next time you repeat a story about somebody: Is it true? Is it fair? If the answer to either of these questions is no, then perhaps you should keep quiet.
流言流言莫牵挂
喂。你认识我。我就在你的办公室里，在你的聚会里，在你的电话里。我既狡诈又残酷。我拥有足以毁掉你一生的力量。闲极无聊，我会伤透你的心，让你辗转难眠。我已经让政府垮台，婚姻破裂。
因为我没有脸，你毫无防备，成为我的牺牲品。如果你有胆量，就设法来找我。但我不会留下任何痕迹，而且我也没有朋友。我的力量与日俱增。我被传述得越多，人们就会更相信我。一旦我扯上了你的名誉，你将声名狼藉。我是谁？
我就是“流言”。从人可以说话起我就一直存在；在你过世后，我仍将在此长存。所以要记住，下一次当你要重述有关某人的故事时，先问问自己：是真的吗？公平吗？如果两个问题中有一个答案是“不”，那么也许你就该保持沉默。
