We are always sending messages to others consciously and unconsciously. How we sit, stand, and the eye contact we make with others sends strong messages. Many times what what’s coming out of our mouths and what our body language is saying are two different things。
無論自身是否意識到這一點，我們總是在對他人傳遞信息。我們的坐姿、站姿、與他人的眼神接觸都會傳遞豐富的信息。很多時候，我們嘴里說出的是一回事，我們的身體語言傳達出的是另一回事。
By a man’s fingernails, by his coat-sleeve, by his boots, by his trouser-knees, by the calluses of his forefinger and thumb, by his expression, by his shirt-cuffs, by his movements – by each of these things a man’s calling is plainly revealed. That all united should fail to enlighten the competent enquirer in any case is almost inconceivable。
- Sherlock Holmes, 1892
從一個人的指甲、他的大衣袖口、他的靴子、他長褲的膝蓋部位、他食指和大拇指上的老繭、他的表情、他的襯衣袖口、他的舉止動作——觀察到所有這些，被觀察者的本性就將顯露無疑�？墒钦麄�英國都沒有培育出一個這樣勝任的觀察者，這真讓人難以理解。 ——福爾摩斯，1892年
