The three sieves’ test. Before you tell me all sorts about other people, it’s a good idea to take the time to filter what you want to say. That’s what I call the three sieves’ test. The first sieve is truth. Have you checked that what you want to tell me is true?”–    “No, I’ve only just heard about it…”–    “Right, so you don’t know whether it’s true. Let’s try the second sieve, kindness. Is what you want to tell me about my friend something good?”–    “Oh no! Quite the opposite.”–    “So,” continued Socrates, “you want to tell me bad things about him and you’re not even sure that they are true. There’s one sieve left, usefulness.–    Is what you want to tell me about my friend of any use?”–    “No, not really.”“So,” said Socrates in conclusion, “if what you want to tell me is neither true, good nor useful, why do you want to tell me?” What about you? Do you use Socrates’ three sieves?http://bullesbygundula.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/3-passoires.png
