voice of reason
指扮演和事佬的角色
explanation :
This idiom refers to someone who keeps
a calm and rational tone in the middle of a big argument. If two or more
people are having a shouting match, an other person might enter the discussion as the "voice of reason" to calm things down.
e.g.
"It's good having Greg in our
meetings, because he always acts like the voice of reason." |
