A young man vying to become an election candidate was told that he would stand no chance of winning the votes of the people for he could not speak their mother tongue. A few weeks later the election was held and the voters polled their votes. He won.
"How did you do it?" asked one of his curious campaigners. "You hardly spoke their language."
"Well, when they laughed, I laughed too. When they cried, I did the same. And when they came to me with all their problems, I hardly understood what they were saying. I tried not to fall asleep for that would be rude. But I kept nodding my head," he explained.
Who needs words when the body already says so much.
