32 of discourse 论辞令
some in their discourse, desire rather commendation of wit, in being able to hold
all arguments, than of judgment, in discerning what is true: as if it were a praise,
to know what might be said, and not what should be thought some have certain common places, and themes, wherein they are good, and want variety: which kind of poverty is for the most part tedious, and when it is once perceived ridiculous. 有些人在他们底谈论中喜欢以反复善辩见称为有才,却不甚注意以能辨真伪而见称为有识;好象知道应当说什么而不知道应当如何思想是一件可称赞的事情似的。有些人善于谈论某种平常习见的题目,可是缺乏变化;这种贫乏大半令人生厌,而一旦被人发见,则是可笑的。
