Short speeches … or else
The next time you’re asked to write a report or make a presentation, keep this story in mind:
A teacher asked a student to sum up Socrates’ life in four lines. He said:
1. Socrates lived long ago.
2. He was very intelligent.
3. Socrates gave long speeches.
4. His friends poisoned him.
