The flowery style is not unsuitable to public speeches or addresses, which amount only to compliment. The lighter beauties are in their place when there is nothing more solid to say; but the flowery style ought to be banished from a pleading, a sermon, or a didactic work.

  • -- Francois Marie Arouet 阿鲁埃

华丽的风格并不不适合公众演讲或演说,它们只相当于赞美。当没有更实在的东西可说的时候,那些轻浮的美人就在她们的位置上了;但是华丽的风格应该从恳求、布道或说教作品中去除。
