٢٦. وَقَالَ (عليه ‏السلام): مَا أَضْمَرَ أَحَدٌ شَيْئاً إِلَّا ظَهَرَ فِي فَلَتَاتِ لِسَانِهِ وَ صَفَحَاتِ وَجْهِهِ.

26. Amīr al-mu’minīn, peace be upon him, said: Whenever a person conceals a thing in his heart it manifests itself through unintentional words from his tongue and (in) the expressions of his face. [1]

26. Nul ne peut cacher ses intentions sans qu’elles n’apparaissent dans les lapsus de sa langue et les traits de son visage.
