Dispute Quotations
If two friends ask you to judge a dispute, don't accept, because you will lose one friend; on the other hand, if two strangers come with the same request, accept because you will gain one friend. Saint Augustine It may happen sometimes that a long debate becomes the cause of a longer friendship. Commonly, those who dispute with one another at last agree. Elbert Hubbard Consider, when you are enraged at any one, what you would probably think if he should die during the dispute. Lucius Annaeus Seneca Immortality: A toy which people cry for, And on their knees apply for, Dispute, contend and lie for, And if allowed Would be right proud Eternally to die for. Ambrose Bierce It is not he who gains the exact point in dispute who scores most in controversy - but he who has shown the better temper. Samuel Butler |
