假如他与人进行争论,他那训练有素的智力使他避免犯那些智力更强然而却缺乏教育的人们常犯的粗鲁和失礼,那些人如同粗钝的武器,乱劈乱砍,而不是公正地争论,他们曲解论点,在枝节问题上浪费精力,他们误解对手,把问题弄得比原来更复杂。
7.He may be right or wrong in his opinion, but he is too clear-headed to be unjust; he is as simple as he is forcible, and as brief as he is decisive. Now here shall we find greater candor, consideration, indulgence: he throws himself into the minds of his opponents, he accounts for their mistakes. He knows the weakness of human reason as well as its strength, its province and its limits.
他的想法也许对也许错,但他头脑清晰,不会不公正;他率直而有说服力,简单而有果断性。在这里我们找到了更强大的直率性、考虑性、放纵性:他站在对手的立场上考虑问题,他为他的错误去解释。他知道人类理性的弱点、优势、领域及局限。
