20 of counsel 论谏议
the greatest trust between man and man is the trust of giving counsel. for in other confidences, men commit the parts of life; their lands, their goods, their children, their credit, some particular affair, but to such as they make their counsellors they commit the whole: by how much the more, they are obliged to all faith and integrity.
人与人之间最大的信任就是关于进言的信任。因为在别的信托之中人们不过是把生活底一部分委托于人,如田地、产业、子女、信用,某项个别事务是也;但是对那些他们认为是言官或诤友的人,他们是把生活底全部都委托了;由此可见这些有言责的人是更应当如何严守信实与坚贞也。
