Arguments out of a petty mouth are unanswerable. Many can argue; not many converse. Wise men argue causes, and fools decide them. When Bishop Berkeley said, "there was no matter," And proved it—'twas no matter what he said. Neither irony nor sarcasm is argument. I am bound to furnish my antagonists with arguments, but not with comprehension. Strong and bitter words indicate a weak cause. Insolence is not logic; epithets are the arguments of malice. Myself when young did eagerly frequent Doctor and Saint, and heard great argument About it and about: but evermore Came out by the same door where in I went. Never argue at the dinner table, for the one who is not hungry always gets the best of the argument. When people agree with me I always feel that I must be wrong. |
