180.決不被敵人誤導(dǎo)
決不被敵人誤導(dǎo)。智者斷定的明智之事,蠢人從不會去做,因為他們不知道遵循合適的方法。審慎的人更不會遵循他人擬定甚而推行的計劃,因為他們必須從多角度對事情進行探討--反反復(fù)復(fù)地考慮到各個方面。人的判斷是各不相同的;還未作出決定的人應(yīng)考慮全面,多想想什么"有可能"發(fā)生,而不是什么"很可能"發(fā)生。
180.Never be guided by what your enemy has done
Never be guided by what your enemy has done. The fool never does what the wise judge wise, because he does not follow up the suitable means. He that is discreet follows still less a plan laid out, or even carried out, by another. One has to discuss matters from both points of view-turn it over on both sides. Judgments vary; let him that has not decided attend rather to what is possible than what is probable.
