234．决不把名誉托付他人，除非他人以名誉作抵押_智慧书（中英双语）

<h1>234．决不把名誉托付他人，除非他人以名誉作抵押</h1>

决不把名誉托付他人，除非他人以名誉作抵押。要确保沉默对双方都有利，泄露对双方都有害。涉及名声之时，你一定要有同伴，这样，每个人都会为自己的名誉而顾及别人的名誉。决不把名誉托付他人，如果必须如此，除了谨慎，更须防范。彼此休戚相关，你的同伴才不会出卖你。

<h1>234．Never trust your honour to another, unless you have his in pledge</h1>

Never trust your honour to another, unless you have his in pledge. Arrange that silence is a mutual advantage; disclosure a danger to both. Where honour is at stake you must act with a partner, so that each must be careful of the other''s honour for the sake of his own. Never entrust your honour to another; but if you have, let caution surpass prudence. Let the danger be inmon and the risk mutual, so that your partner cannot turn king''s evidence.
