雙語智慧書·急流勇退

38．急流勇退
　　急流勇退。所有的高級玩家均長于此道。適時的撤退正如巧妙的進攻。一旦功德圓滿，即便還有更多盛名，也要急流勇退。絡繹不絕的好運總是十分可疑。斷續(xù)的好運似乎更安全一些，對于那些喜歡品嘗憂喜參半之味的人來說，似乎也更甜美。當好運來得太多太快時，危險也越大，且可能一塌糊涂。有時，幸運女神的青睞雖然很強烈，但是卻很短暫。背一個人太久了，她很快就會厭倦的。
38．Leave your luck while winning
　Leave your luck while winning. All the best players do it. A fine retreat is as good as a gallant attack. Bring your exploits under cover when there are enough, or even when there are many of them. Luck long lasting was ever suspicious; interrupted seems safer, and is even sweeter to the taste for a little infusion of bitter-sweet. The higher the heap of luck, the greater the risk of a slip, and down comes all. Fortune pays you sometimes for the intensity of her favours by the shortness of their duration. She soon tires of carrying anyone long on her shoulders.
