I like 'silky', but the original quote was in the context of speaking for others, i.e. the Dalai Lama speaking for other's happiness. It's a common issue with Buddhism, which is why they say to let others solve their own dissonance, but do so in a way that forces them to do so without external influence. In many ways that's "tricky" business.
