Καὶ ἀπ’ αὐτῶν δὲ τῶν παρὰ τοῖς διαλεκτικοῖς λεγομένων ὁρμώμενός τις οὕτως ἂν συντόμως ὑπομνήσειε περιττὰ εἶναι τὰ περὶ τῶν σοφισμάτων παρ’ αὐτοῖς δὴ τεχνολογούμενα. ἐπὶ τὴν τέχνην τὴν διαλεκτικήν φασιν ὡρμηκέναι οἱ διαλεκτικοὶ οὐχ ἀπλῶς ὑπὲρ τοῦ γνῶναι τί ἐκ τίνος συνάγεται, ἀλλὰ προηγουμένως ὑπὲρ τοῦ δι’ ἀποδεικτικῶν λόγων τὰ ἀληθῆ καὶ τὰ ψευδῆ κρίνειν ἐπίστασθαι· λέγουσι γοῦν εἷναι τὴν διαλεκτικὴν ἐπιστήμην ἀληθῶν καὶ ψευδῶν καὶ ούδετέρων.
