Such men are so watchful to censure, that they have seldom much care to look for favourable interpretations of ambiguities, to set the general tenor of life against single failures, or to know how soon any slip of inadvertency has been expiated by sorrow and retractation; but let fly their fulminations, without mercy or prudence, against slight offences or casual temerities, against crimes never committed, or immediately repented. [Johnson, "Life of Sir Thomas Browne," 1756]
这样的人非常警惕地批评,他们很少关心对模棱两可的事情进行有利的解释,将生活的总体趋势与单个失误相对比,或者知道任何疏忽的失误很快就会被悔恨和撤回所弥补; 但是,他们毫不留情地发射他们的谴责,针对轻微的冒犯或偶然的鲁莽行为,针对从未犯下的罪行或立即悔过的罪行。[约翰逊,“托马斯·布朗爵士的生平”,1756年]
最早记录年份: 1580s
