When two quarrel, both are in the wrong.

When good people have a falling out, only one of them may be at fault at first; but if the strife continues long, usually both become guilty.
Fuller, Thomas

32.
Argument is conclusive... but... it does not remove doubt, so that the mind may rest in the sure knowledge of the truth, unless it finds it by the method of experiment. For if any man who never saw fire proved by satisfactory arguments that fire burns. his hearer's mind would never be satisfied, nor would he avoid the fire until he put his hand in it that he might learn by experiment what argument taught.
Bacon, Roger

33.
A sure way of getting the last word in an argument is to say you right.

There is no point in arguing about matters of taste.

39.
When you have no basis for an argument, abuse the plaintiff.
Cicero, Marcus T.
