The Science of Speaking

A very talkative youth wanted Socrates to teach him oratory. He expected the philosopher to work wonders, for in his case the teacher would deal with an exceptionally gifted pupil, with whom talking was second nature. He begged Socrates to hear him speak on some subject. Socrates let him talk as much as he liked and then said, “I’ll have to charge 1 you double, for I’ll have to teach you two sciences: how to speak and how to hold your tongue.”

1 charge v – назначать цену
