He that questioneth much, shall learn much, and content much; but especially, if he apply his questions to the skill of the persons whom he asketh; for he shall give them occasion, to please themselves in speaking, and himself shall continually gather knowledge.
多问的人会多学,也会使人愉快;尤其当问题切合对方的专长时,对方有机会畅谈所长,自己也能不断积累知识。
