hearer, n.Definitions

A Hearer (n.) determines ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠a speech's end and object — not the speaker, not the subject.

Hearer (n.) disappears ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠once all self-power is purged — and just because no one is left to declare himself the hearer, nothing heard is missed.

Hearer (n.) should ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠not ask a philosopher "Have you nothing to say to me?" but show himself capable of hearing, and he will stimulate the speaker as a thoroughbred stirs the horseman.
