until we have expressed them to someone else.

a mist is produced by his word before his own eyes;

To broadcast your opinions all the time.
Keep your wise opinions of yourself
So you can escape the ridicule
Of the world
And also save the world
From having to tolerate your stupidity.

the moods, the blood, the disposition of the spectator.

It is an outburst of its reasoning and judging faculty,
and so an opinion accords with the evolution of a particular mind.

when two people of different stages of evolution

We may all have our private opinions
but why should they be a bar to the meeting of hearts?

as though everything depended upon it.
Yet our opinions have no permanence;
like autumn and winter, they gradually pass away.

The superior man...does not set his mind
either for anything, or against anything;
what is right he will follow.
