Best Quotes about Argument
It takes two to quarrel, but only one to end it.
Proverb, Spanish
The long term versus the short term argument is one used by losers.
Adler, Larry
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

Bonaparte, Napoleon
I will name you the degrees. The first, the Retort Courteous; the second, the Quip Modest; the third, the Reply Churlish; the fourth, the Reproof Valiant; the fifth, the Countercheck Quarrelsome; the sixth, the Lie with Circumstance; the seventh, the Lie Direct.
Shakespeare, William

With reasonable men I will reason; with humane men I will plea; but to tyrants I will give no quarter, nor waste arguments where they will certainly be lost.

The best way I know of to win an argument is to start by being in the right.
Hailsham, Lord Quintin Hogg
Hear one side and you will be in the dark. Hear both and all will be clear.

Harris, Sidney J.
The difficult part in an argument is not to defend one's opinion, but rather to know it.
Maurois, Andre
It is the briefest yet wisest maxim which tells us to meddle not.
Colton, Charles Caleb
The most perfidious way of harming a cause consists of defending it deliberately with faulty arguments.
Friedrich Nietzsche
