Our cautious ancestors, when yawning, blocked the way to the entrance of evil spirits by putting their hands before their mouths. We find a reason for the gesture in the delicacy of manner which forbids an indecent exposure.

  • -- George H. Mead 乔治·H·米德

我们谨慎的祖先，在打哈欠的时候，用手捂住嘴，挡住了恶灵的入口。我们找到了一个原因，以微妙的方式，禁止不雅的暴露姿态。
