A man never tells you anything until you contradict him. In a true tragedy, both parties must be right. Some guy hit my fender the other day, and I said unto him, "Be fruitful, and multiply." But not in those words. We're eyeball to eyeball, and the other fellow just blinked. Weakness on both sides is, as we know, the motto of all quarrels. There is no good arguing with the inevitable. The only argument available with an east wind is to put on your overcoat. It is not necessary to understand things in order to argue about them. I learned long ago never to wrestle with a pig. You get dirty, and besides, the pig likes it. The test of a man or woman's breeding is how they behave in a quarrel. I have never in my life learned anything from any man who agreed with me. Better be quarrelling than lonesome. Quarrels would not last long if the fault was only on one side. When we quarrel, how we wish we had been blameless. The most savage controversies are those about matters as to which there is no good evidence either way. Every story has three sides to it - yours, mine and the facts. |
