Nay, he said, they do something.
And doing is making?
Yes.
And speaking is doing and making?
He agreed.
Then no one says that which is not, for in saying what is not he wouldbe doing something; and you have already acknowledged that no one can dowhat is not. And therefore, upon your own showing, no one says what isfalse; but if Dionysodorus says anything, he says what is true and whatis.
Yes, Eu...thydemus, said Ctesippus; but he speaks of things in a certainway and manner, and not as they really are.
