2 Homer sometimes nods
каждый может ошибиться; ≈ на всякого мудреца довольно простоты [этим. лат. indignor, quandoque bonus dormitat Homerus я испытываю досаду всякий раз, как задремлет (т. е. ошибётся в чём-л.) милый Гомер (Гораций, "Искусство поэзии")]You have to accept the crotchets of an author of great parts. Homer sometimes nods and Shakespeare can write passages of empty rhetoric. (W. S. Maugham, ‘Books and You’, ch. III) — Приходится считаться с причудами великих писателей. Ошибиться может всякий, и у Шекспира встречается мало-содержательная риторика.
