What's that quote, from an Ancient Greek I think, about how the first question in argument should be "What do you mean by that?" and the second question should be "And how do you know that?"
Sounds like Socrates.
I thought there was some pithy quote from him (well, Plato) about it, but I can't find the pithy quote version of the idea.
