雙語智慧書·不要打破沙鍋問到底

239．不要打破沙鍋問到底
　　不要打破沙鍋問到底。做人更重要的是明白事理。所知超出所需，就會(huì)弄鈍你的武器，因?yàn)殇h利的刀刃容易卷口或者豁口。了解常識(shí)性的事實(shí)最為妥當(dāng)。了解事情沒有錯(cuò)，但不要揪住細(xì)枝末節(jié)不放。評(píng)論太多就會(huì)引起爭(zhēng)議。明白事理要好得多，這樣就不會(huì)偏離正在做的事情。


239．Do not be captious
　Do not be captious. It is much more important to be sensible. To know more than is necessary blunts your weapons, for fine points generally bend or break. Commonsense truth is the surest. It is well to know but not to niggle. Lengthy comment leads to disputes. It is much better to have sound sense, which does not wander from the matter in hand.
