“Do not be opinionated and contravene the masses. Do not take verbal facility to be a sign of certainty.”
但说实话，看了也不知所云。个人觉得应该这样翻译：
Do not insist on your own strategy if the entire army is against it; do not imagine that an idea is right just because an argument can be made for it.

Discussion
This is the only KudoZ section where I see people writing XXX>Eng translation a) without giving the answer in the answer area, b) not giving the answer translated to English
You don't need to prove anything by showing you can write in Chinese, IMHO this KudoZ section should try to give its answers in respect of the normal format so that it can actually be useful to as many people as possible
