ἀρκεῖ γάρ, οἶμαι, τὸ ἐμπείρως τε καὶ ἀδοξάστως κατὰ τὰς κοινὰς τηρήσεις τε καὶ προλήψεις βιοῦν, περὶ τῶν ἐκ δογματικῆς περιεργίας καὶ μάλιστα ἔξω τῆς βιωτικῆς χρείας λεγομένων ἐπέχοντας. εἰ οὖν ὅσα μὲν εὐχρήστως ἂν ἐπιλυθείη, ταῦτα οὐκ ἂν διαλύσαιτο ἡ διαλεκτική, ὅσα δὲ ἐπιλύεσθαι δοίη τις ἂν ἴσως ὐπ’ αὐτῆς σοφίσματα,. τούτων ἡ διάλυσις ἄχρηστός ἐστιν, ἄχρηστός ἐστι κατὰ τὴν ἐπίλυσιν τῶν σοφισμάτων ἡ διαλεκτική.
