不要因做作或粗心而显得古怪。很多人都有一些很明显的特质，从而做出古怪的行为。这是缺点，而非长处。正如有的人因过于丑陋而闻名，古怪之人也因其外在行为让人讨厌而闻名。这种怪异是他们独特的商标：他们要么招致恶意，要么被人嘲笑。
be not eccentric, neither from affectation nor carelessness. many have some remarkable and individual quality leading to eccentric actions. these are more defects than excellent differences. and just as some are known for some special ugliness, so these for something repellant in their outward behaviour. such eccentricities simply serve as trademarks through their atrocious singularity: they cause either derision or ill-will.
