烈酒烫喉情话烫嘴
[liè jiŭ tàng hóu qíng huà tàng zuĭ]
'Spicy liquor burns throat, sweet words burn lips.' It poetically contrasts intense physical sensations from alcohol against the effect of sweet talk, both having powerful but different influences on the person speaking and listening. In a broader sense, it might refer to intoxicating yet sometimes dangerous effects when combining strong drinks with passionate rhetoric.
