The long term versus the short term argument is one used by losers.

Quotes by John Dalberg-Acton

As set forth by theologians, the idea of 'God' is an argument that assumes its own conclusions, and proves nothing.

Quotes by Johann Most

There are 435 members of Congress. There's one 'Morning Joe' show. Hopefully, we can keep hammering the argument that you can disagree with other people and have debates but remain civil.

The practice of narrative and argument does not lead to invention, but it compels a certain coherence of thought.

Quotes by Jean Piaget

Logical reasoning is an argument which we have with ourselves and which reproduces internally the features of a real argument.

Quotes by Jean Piaget

The argument of the strongest is always the best.

Quotes by Jean de La Fontaine

I'm not scared of diversity. We have to have debates and win the argument, and if there are amendments that need to be brought up so we find out where the party is, so be it.

Quotes by Jason Chaffetz

The journalistic 'I' is an overreliable narrator, a functionary to whom crucial tasks of narration and argument and tone have been entrusted, an ad hoc creation, like the chorus of Greek tragedy. He is an emblematic figure, an embodiment of the idea of the dispassionate observer of life.

Quotes by Janet Malcolm

Single women have a dreadful propensity for being poor. Which is one very strong argument in favor of matrimony.

Jane Austen

There is no good in arguing with the inevitable. The only argument available with an east wind is to put on your overcoat.

Quotes by James Russell Lowell

I contribute in many different ways to the team. I've played a hell of a lot of games in my career, and you can stake any argument on the stats.

Quotes by James Milner

Given the difficulty of resisting such temptations over the longer run, a proper concern for the welfare of congressional souls may well be the ultimate argument in favor of term limitations.

Quotes by James L. Buckley

I have found you an argument; I am not obliged to find you an understanding.

Quotes by James Boswell

After 45 years of marriage, when I have an argument with my wife, if we don't agree, we do what she wants. But, when we agree, we do what I want!

Quotes by Jacques Pepin

I became the stage for the great argument between Nietzsche and Rousseau. I was the extra ready to take on all the roles.

Quotes by Jacques Derrida

We sometimes hear the argument, 'All the world' thinks this, or does that, given as a reason for our doing likewise; but that is an argument that should have no weight with the Christian, who is commanded not to be conformed to the world.

Quotes by Hudson Taylor

I do insist on making what I hope is sense so there's always a coherent narrative or argument that the reader can follow.

Quotes by Howard Nemerov

No one has advanced the argument that all-male fighting forces have been handicapped in their war-making abilities over the millennia because they did not include women in their ranks.

Quotes by Heather Mac Donald

My favorite comedians are just presenting an argument, and they're doing it in a funny way.

Quotes by Hasan Minhaj

The argument that capitalism was dependent on slavery is, of course, not new. In 1944, Eric Williams, in 'Capitalism and Slavery,' made the case.

Quotes by Greg Grandin

The main point for me is moral; animals are sentient beings. I know for some this is a hard argument to accept, but we're not built to eat a lot of meat.

Quotes by Grace Slick

The argument about zoning and the presidency of Nigeria is like the philosophical argument of the egg or the hen. Who is older through the evolutionary process, who came first?

Quotes by Goodluck Jonathan

The mark, to me, of a constructive argument is one that looks at a specific problem and says, 'What shall we do about this?' And a nonconstructive one is one that tries to label people.

Quotes by Gloria Steinem

I can't imagine an argument that says that raising marginal tax rates on high income people, many of whom are business owners, is a recipe for economic growth.

Quotes by Glenn Hubbard

Argument is to me the air I breathe. Given any proposition, I cannot help believing the other side and defending it.

Quotes by Gertrude Stein

Honestly, I want to live a calm life without being in the press. I want to be like any other American citizen who gets a speeding ticket or has an argument with his spouse... and doesn't have the whole world know.

Quotes by George Zimmerman

I think fiction isn't so good at being for or against things in general - the rhetorical argument a short story can make is only actualized by the accretion of particular details, and the specificity of these details renders whatever conclusions the story reaches invalid for wider application.

Quotes by George Saunders

Anger is never without an argument, but seldom with a good one.

Quotes by George Savile

We should continue to mobilise against the destruction of the world's great habitats, and its terrifying implications. But the most persuasive argument we can make is to show we mean it, by restoring our own lost wonders.

Quotes by George Monbiot

I will make the argument that we are poorly adapted to our current environment. I mean, we did not evolve to sit all day and be exposed to giant amounts of really tasty food.

Quotes by George M. Church

The other night I ate at a real nice family restaurant. Every table had an argument going.

Quotes by George Carlin

George W. Bush bought the election - period. End of story. There is no argument. You can try to come up with any argument you can, but there is none.

Quotes by Gary Coleman

At a time like this, scorching irony, not convincing argument, is needed.

Quotes by Frederick Douglass

In argument similes are like songs in love; they describe much, but prove nothing.

Quotes by Franz Kafka

If we do not counter the argument that most radical nationlists use, which is, 'To protect is to be protectionist,' if we don't counter that argument, all of our economies will suffer.

Quotes by Frans Timmermans

The argument that won the Brexit campaign is the one that said take back control... which is another way of saying we want to control our destinies again. This is an existential issue for the whole of Europe, not just for the U.K., because this sentiment is not limited to the United Kingdom.

Quotes by Frans Timmermans

I haven't mentioned another argument, The Hague tribunal. It is clear our generals and all of you who are sitting here now with me could end up there, too.

Quotes by Franjo Tudjman

It is more noble by silence to avoid an injury than by argument to overcome it.

Quotes by Francis Beaumont

There are jobs to be created on both sides of the climate argument. Whether we are investing in oil or sun, coal or wind, gas or algae, the economy will be stimulated by the investment. The economy, unlike each of us, is not swayed by ideology.

Quotes by Evangeline Lilly

Reducing every issue to an argument can become stale but it's often a very good way of clarifying issues.

Quotes by Evan Davis

Few progressives would take issue with the argument that, significant accomplishments notwithstanding, the Obama presidency has been a big disappointment.

Quotes by Eric Alterman

The argument of the broken window pane is the most valuable argument in modern politics.

Quotes by Emmeline Pankhurst

The whole argument with the anti-suffragists, or even the critical suffragist man, is this: that you can govern human beings without their consent.

Quotes by Emmeline Pankhurst

Faith is not uprooted by dialectic proof; it must already be deeply shaken by other causes to be unable to withstand the shock of argument.

Quotes by Emile Durkheim

The Republican argument that raising the debt ceiling encourages additional future spending is logically irresponsible. The debt ceiling has to be raised to authorize spending already approved by Congress. Despite that fallacy, the GOP has been able to score political points with its argument.

Quotes by Eliot Spitzer

To be clever in argument is not rationality but rationalization.

Quotes by Eliezer Yudkowsky

The Bible nowhere enters into an argument to prove the person and being of God. It assumes His being and reveals His person and character.

Quotes by Edward McKendree Bounds

A common creation demands a common sacrifice, and perhaps not the least potent argument in favour of a constructed international language is the fact that it is equally foreign, or apparently so, to the traditions of all nationalities.

Quotes by Edward Sapir

There is something about guns that inhibits understanding. It is not just that they can put an end to argument. They somehow generate beliefs that are obviously contrary to observable fact.

Quotes by Edmund Morgan

I remember having an argument with Alan, I said the Queen's not just going to call the guy up and send him out to do it. And Alan says, well, how would a monarch give orders to her assassin.

Quotes by Eddie Campbell

Every time the conservatives get in trouble, they start pounding on this ridiculous idea that the liberals want to take their microphones. They want to get Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity off the air. That is a straw man argument throw out by the conservative broadcasters who are so out of material they are going to fear-monger their listeners.

Quotes by Ed Schultz

'The Creation' presents an argument for saving biological diversity on Earth. Most of the book is for as broad an audience as possible.

Quotes by E. O. Wilson

Could I interrupt here, because there is an alternative explanation, which you are particularly well placed to examine. You know the argument that it is the alchemists in the laboratories who invent the sweet new kits.

Quotes by E. P. Thompson

Euclid taught me that without assumptions there is no proof. Therefore, in any argument, examine the assumptions.

Quotes by E. T. Bell

The sounder your argument, the more satisfaction you get out of it.

Quotes by E. W. Howe

Linda loves an argument, and I like to engage, too, but she knows that I'm a poet, so I will engage forever. We are in the Chinese astrology of dogs, and we are forever snapping at each other.

Quotes by Donovan

Power is getting things done without having to demonstrate that you can bulldoze it through. I'm most effective when I've studied an issue, when I can make a credible argument, and then bring people along.

Quotes by Donna Edwards

Their argument is that most shows are losers, which is true, but it's also disingenuous to say, 'We are not going to take the risk unless it is totally covered by the few successful shows that are out there.'

Quotes by Dick Wolf

What we perceive things to be when they come out of our mouth is not what the listener perceives it to be. They think it differently. They're not your blood. They're not your mind. You get in an argument.

Quotes by Dick Dale

Our spirits are corroded by living in an atmosphere of unrelenting contention - an argument culture.

Quotes by Deborah Tannen

Before you decide to have an argument, think about what you really want to accomplish. Do you just want to let your feelings out, or is there a point you are trying to make? What is it?

Quotes by David Viscott

Be part of the solution and answer to the problem versus part of the problem and continuing argument around it.

Quotes by David Pratt

Newspapers and their editors have to become as accountable as the rest of us - they are not 'a special case,' and they have only themselves to blame for having lost the argument for 'exceptionalism' - and with it the right to 'self-regulation.'

Quotes by David Puttnam

First of all, you can make the argument that there's no such thing as the past. Nobody lived in the past.

Quotes by David McCullough

Truth springs from argument amongst friends.

Quotes by David Hume

Apple chief executive Tim Cook is such a respected figure that it's easy to overlook the basic problem with his argument about encryption: Cook is asserting that a private company and the interests of its customers should prevail over the public's interest as expressed by our courts.

Quotes by David Ignatius

Lincoln had no such person that he could talk with. Often, as a result, he debated with himself, and he would draw up a kind of list of the pros and cons of an argument, and carefully figure them out, and he might test them in public.

Quotes by David Herbert Donald

One could drive a prairie schooner through any part of his argument and never scrape against a fact.

Quotes by David F. Houston

Until Japan's economy drove off a cliff, there was a running argument in Asia about whether it would be wiser to follow the 'Japan model' - with its megacorporations, jobs for life, state control of strategic industries - or the 'American model' of largely unfettered markets.

Quotes by David E. Sanger

Big History's not going to replace existing educational courses. It's not an attack on specialisation. It is simply the argument that specialisation needs to be complemented with an overview, which I think is scientific commonsense.

Quotes by David Christian

When you're taking the country through difficult times and difficult decisions you've got to take the country with you. That means permanently trying to make the argument that what you're doing is fair and seen to be fair.

Quotes by David Cameron

I would be absolutely astounded if population growth and industrialisation and all the stuff we are pumping into the atmosphere hadn't changed the climatic balance. Of course it has. There is no valid argument for denial.

Quotes by David Attenborough

The argument has been made in Congress that it is slippery slope if you allow therapeutic, what people people are calling therapeutic cloning, then you will get reproductive cloning.

Quotes by David Baltimore

Keep cool; anger is not an argument.

Quotes by Daniel Webster

If I can make a career for myself after Potter, and it goes well, and is varied and with longevity, then that puts to bed the 'child actors argument'.

Quotes by Daniel Radcliffe

The point of college is more to acquire skills than to acquire domain knowledge. One of the skills that is going to be most necessary: you have to be able to read with rigor and write with clarity. You have to be able to communicate. To make an argument, whether it's in a written piece or in front of a group of people.

Quotes by Daniel H. Pink

The only way to get the best of an argument is to avoid it.

Quotes by Dale Carnegie

I should probably be careful admitting this, but sometimes, when my characters are having a disagreement, it's a disagreement I'm having with myself. I can see both sides of the argument.

Quotes by Curtis Sittenfeld

Sometimes we deny being worthy of praise, hoping to generate an argument we would be pleased to lose.

Quotes by Cullen Hightower

I dropped out of high school when I was 16, after I had a huge argument with my English teacher over the meaning of the word 'existentialism.'

Quotes by Craig Ferguson

I don't feel that an atmosphere of debate and total disagreement and argument is such a bad thing. It makes for a vital and alive field.

Quotes by Clifford Geertz

I've never bought the argument that people are apathetic about politics.

Quotes by Chuka Umunna

The argument in Labour around full membership of the single market is about whether it can be squared with delivering the desire of many of our voters to gain greater control over immigration. This is a proper concern - Labour must stand for those who voted leave every bit as much as we represent those who voted remain.

Quotes by Chuka Umunna

Well, we can't say any more than we can say there is no god, there is no afterlife. We can only say there is no persuasive evidence for or argument for it.

Quotes by Christopher Hitchens

If I'm in a political argument, I think I can, with reasonable accuracy and without boasting, put the other person's side of the case at least as well as they could. One has to be able to say that in any well-conducted argument.

Quotes by Christopher Hitchens

Censors can make a case for zero tolerance in language. They can make the argument that since we don't allow our children to use that language in schools, we also shouldn't give them stories in which it is used.

Quotes by Chris Crutcher

I understand fully that jobs are created by the private sector, having been all my life in the private sector, but I don't buy the argument that the state has no role to play.

Quotes by Chris Gabrieli

The argument for getting our own house in order is not an argument for turning our back on the world. We cannot and should not do that.

Quotes by Chris Christie

Silence is argument carried out by other means.

Quotes by Che Guevara

I've scaled back my involvement with Twitter; it's too easy to get dragged into an argument.

Quotes by Charlie Brooker

On the other hand, it is not fair to say that changes in federal policy have caused our tuition to rise faster. Every economic argument imaginable would indicate that we should raise tuition at a faster rate than we do.

Quotes by Charles Vest

Ridicule is the first and last argument of a fool.

Quotes by Charles Simmons

Hardly anybody realizes that the first couple of chapters of 'Coming Apart' were basically a recapitulation of the argument in 'The Bell Curve.' That's how little people focused on 'The Bell Curve's' real message.

Quotes by Charles Murray

I believe that the pursuit of truth and right ideas through honest debate and rigorous argument is a noble undertaking.

Quotes by Charles Krauthammer

Back when Detroit was the head of auto manufacturing, it was clear where profits were created. Right? A car was made in Detroit. There was little argument that you could make that some of the money from that should be sent overseas to Ireland.
