“And I even miss people, even the inchworms and the cretins, because I don't really think they're bad, I think they're just scared.”
我甚至想念人,连那些毛毛虫和蠢货都想,因为我并不真觉得他们坏,我觉得他们只是害怕。
一句把满嘴刻薄的人说软了,恨意底下原来是怜悯,最见角色底色。
I don't think they're bad, I think they're just ...
看穿某人的刻薄后替他解释时用;正式辩论里这样说会显得太感性。
They're not evil, just frightened. / People aren't cruel so much as scared.

even the 连读,inchworms and cretins 并列重读,just scared 放轻收尾。
She isn't rude, she's just shy. 她不是没礼貌,她只是害羞。
