最短的演讲

国飞机发明家莱特兄弟,是一对很善於思索又刻苦钻研的兄弟,可是他们却是一对最不善於交际的难兄难弟,他们最讨厌的就是演讲。

有一天在某个盛宴上,酒过三巡,主持者便请大莱特发表演说。

[这一定是弄错了吧!]大莱特为难地说。
[演说是归舍弟负责的。]於是小莱特便站起来说道∶[谢谢各位,家兄刚才已经演讲过了。]就这样推来推去,人们还是不放过兄弟两。
经各界人士再三邀请,小莱特只说了这样一句话∶

[椐我所知,鸟类中会说话的只有鹦鹉,而鹦鹉是飞不高的。]

这只有一句话的演讲,博得人们长时间的日烈鼓掌。 有时候话不用多说,有用的一句便够了

Inventors of the First Engined Airplane
Orville Wright and Wilbur Wright

Well from my understanding, it meant alots, i think they tried to tell us:
1. even they talked less, but they have a big acheivement / success by an air-plane invented.
2. Some people talk too much & think to much without any action...they gain nothing at the end.
