Do not give way to useless alarm; though it is right to be prepared for the worst, there is no occasion to look on it as certain.

Do not give way to useless alarm; though it is right to be prepared for the worst, there is no occasion to look on it as certain.

不要给无谓的惊慌失措让路;尽管做好最坏的打算是对的，但没有必要把它看得那么肯定。

-- Jane Austen 简·奥斯汀
