跟找你闲谈的人讲论死亡、审判及其他严肃的话题,引起他们的注意,即使他们装聋,仍能利己益人,来者或是受益而去,或者以后不会再浪费你的时间。
When people come to you in order to pass the time, talk to them of death, judgment, and other such grave matters. Thus their attention will be captured, even though they try to be deaf, and you will benefit both yourself and them. Either they will go away the better, or they will abstain from wasting your time in future.
Adapted from Thoughts of St. Ignatius Loyola for Every Day of the Year
