Now the thing is not to get into unnecessary quarrels by talking too much and not to indicate any weakness by talking too much; let our actions speak for themselves.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Most quarrels amplify a misunderstanding.
People generally quarrel because they cannot argue.
Be calm in arguing; for fierceness makes error a fault, and truth discourtesy.
Better talk than fight, if nothing of sovereign value is anyway lost. Dialogue has achieved more than confrontation in many parts of the world.
Most quarrels are inevitable at the time; incredible afterwards.
It takes two to quarrel, but only one to end it.
We make out of the quarrel with others, rhetoric, but of the quarrel with ourselves, poetry.
Weakness on both sides is, as we know, the motto of all quarrels.
Let us not become so intense in our zeal to do good by winning arguments or by our pure intention in disputing doctrine that we go beyond good sense and manners, thereby promoting contention, or say and do imprudent things, invoke cynicism, or ridicule with flippancy.
Quarrel? Nonsense; we have not quarreled. If one is not to get into a rage sometimes, what is the good of being friends?
