استمعت وشاركت وراقبت أثر آلاف المجادلات , وخلصت الى ان هناك نتيجه واحدة فقط لكسب الجدل وهي ان تتجنبيه كليه . تجنبيه مثلما تتجنبين الثعابين والزلازل “.
“لا يمكنك كسب جدل , وحتى ان كسبتيه , فسوف تخسرين . لماذا ؟ لأنك حتى ان حملت شخصا على رفع رايه الاستسلام البيضاء فإن هذا لا يعني انك قد غيرت وجهه نظرة. وانما سوف تكونين فقط قد نجحت في انهاكه الى الحد الذي جعله عاجزا عن مواصله الحديث. جادلي وواصلي جدلك وسوف تترسخ حقيقتان لا ثالث لهما في نفس خصمك وهما انك مخطئه وبغيضه . انه نصر أجوف . حتى ان نجحت في اقتناصه لأنك لن تكسبي ابدا احترام الطرف الآخر” .

I have heard, in such a way as to believe it, of your recently saying that both the army and the Government needed a dictator. Of course, it was not for this, but in spite of it, that I have given you command. Only those generals who gain successes can set up as dictators. What I now ask of you is military success and I will risk the dictatorship.

You want the approval of those with whom you come in contact. You want recognition of your true worth. You want a feeling that you are important in your little world. You don’t want to listen to cheap, insincere flattery, but you do crave sincere appreciation. You want your friends and associates to be, as Charles Schwab put it, “hearty in their approbation and lavish in their praise.” All of us want that. So let’s obey the Golden Rule, and give unto others what we would have others give unto us. How? When? Where? The answer is: All the time, everywhere.
