The next philosopher we hear of is Anaximander, who also lived in Miletus at about the same time as Thales.

我们所知的第二个哲学家是安纳克西曼德(Anaximander)，他和泰利斯处于同一时期并且也住在米雷特斯。

Ever since Thales said that all is water, philosophers have been ready with glib assertions about the sum-total of things; and equally glib denials have come from other philosophers ever since Thales was contradicted by Anaximander.

自从泰勒斯说一切都是水以来， 哲学家们就已经准备好了关于事物总和的油嘴滑舌的断言； 自从泰勒斯被阿那克西曼德反驳以来， 其他哲学家也同样轻率地否认了这一点。
