Chapter 52 the art of seating

Shouldn't we refrain from sitting there stiffly while giving a speech? Wouldn't the public expect it if we arrived on the scene with a new look? But if the situation does require us to sit down and give a speech, then we need to be very careful about how we sit.Perhaps you've seen speakers who look around the podium for a chair, then stoop and slump into it, losing the last bit of their grace.And a speaker who knows the art of sitting will always feel that the chair is beating on his nerves, making him sit upright and keeping his whole body in perfect self-control.
