判断准确。有些人天生聪慧,凭借这一天生的优势,在学习之初,他们就已成功了一半。年纪愈长,经验日丰,他们的判断力也会变得十分敏捷和准确。他们厌恶一切可能偏离审慎的奇想怪念,尤其是国家大事,因为国家大事十分重要,讲求万无一失。这种人可以站在国家的舵轮旁边,或者是领航员,或者是舵手。
a sound judgment. some are born wise, and with this natural advantage enter upon their studies, with a moiety already mastered. with age and experience their reason ripens, and thus they attain a sound judgment. they abhor everything whimsical as leading prudence astray, especially in matters of state, where certainty is so necessary, owing to the importance of the affairs involved. such men deserve to stand by the helm of state either as pilots or as men at the wheel.
