    1.英语谚语Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones的中文

    本意是:住在玻璃屋里的人不可丢石头。也就是说,世间没有十全十美的人,每个人都有缺点,所以不要批评别人。即所谓「自身有短,勿批他人」。(Nobody is perfect, so we should not criticize others.) 类似的,还有:

    Don't judge a man until you have walked a mile in his shoes. (除非你充分了解人家的立场,不可轻易作出评估。)

    (judge = criticize; have walked a mile in his shoes = have understood his situation well enough)

    另一句是:

    Judge not lest ye be judged. (来自圣经)(意思是:不要批评别人,免得将来也被别人批评。)(ye 是古字 = you;lest 是连接词,意思是唯恐或免得。)就是:

    If you criticize others, you probably will be criticized ,too.

    所以我们也可以说:

    He told his children“Judge not lest ye be judged.”
