'Silence implies consent' nghĩa là 'im lặng là đồng ý'; vậy chắc 'smile implies consensus' nghĩa là 'mỉm cười là nhất trí' :D

Ví dụ
Silence implies consent, and there has been too much silence in European capitals as democracy has eroded in Budapest and Warsaw.

In a call for support to our colleagues, my fellow rabbis and I hold to holy words. The Talmud says: “Silence implies consent.” We will not be silent. Let our absence during Trump’s speech be the most eloquent statement that we can make at this time.

It’s important for world leaders to take a more consistent position when it comes to public statements on the Middle East. Just because Israel is the more powerful side of the dispute with the Palestinians does not mean it is always wrong and that hateful acts, contrary to Ban Ki-moon’s recent justifications, are understandable, if not inevitable. Acts of hatred call out for condemnation because silence implies consent.

* WARSAW, 27 February 2016 - On Saturday over 150 thousand people from all over Poland joined in demonstrations against the current government. The march through the city centre is organised by the committee for the protection of democracy (KOD). Poles have been frustrated by actions seen by many as usurpation of power by the conservative Law and Justice party which won the recent elections.
