Definition of Sophistical Formula:
To shut off or close the argument a popular maxim or old saying is quoted. But every controversial situation must be settled in its own terms, and not on the merits (if any) of some proverb.

Mrs.Jones: 'You know, Ann, I think the Browns must be having trouble. The last two mornings I've seen Tom Brown leave the house, slam the door, and drive off in his car looking awfully mad. I'll bet they're headed for a divorce.' Mrs. Smith: 'I don't know, Barbara. Really, they've always seemed to be very much in love.' Mrs. Jones: 'Well, all I know is that where there's smoke, there's Fire'.
