"There's no point in arguing with partisan supporters. Their views are their identity. Nothing you can tell the most phlegmatic follower."	Michael Lews
"It's [the Brady Act] taking manpower and crime-fighting capability off the streets."	Dennis Martin
"In any free society, the conflict between social conformity and individual liberty is permanent, unresolvable, and necessary."	Kathleen Norris
"Truth springs from argument amongst friends."	David Hume
"A life of reaction is a life of slavery, intellectually and spiritually. One must fight for a life of action, not reaction."	Rita Mae Brown
"Israel has created a new image of the Jew in the world-the image of a working and an intellectual people, of a people that can fight with heroism."	Benjamin Nnamdi Azikiwe
"Men make the mistake of thinking that because women can't see the sense in violence, they must be passive creatures. It's just not true. In one important way, at least, men are the passive sex. Given a choice, they will always opt for the status quo. They hate change of any kind, and they fight against it constantly. On the other hand, what women want is stability, which when you stop to think about it is a very different animal."	Eric Lustbader
"Note how good you feel after you have encouraged someone else. No other argument is necessary to suggest that never miss the opportunity to give encouragement."	George Burton Adams
"You become a champion by fighting one more round. When things are tough, you fight one more round."	James Corbett
"Never [enter] into dispute or argument with another. I never yet saw an instance of one of two disputants convincing the other by argument. I have seen many on their getting warm, becoming rude and shooting one another."	Thomas Jefferson
"Yes, we are all different. Different customs, different foods, different mannerisms, different languages, but not so different that we cannot get along with one another. If we will disagree without being disagreeable."	J. Martin Kohe
"In the frank expression of conflicting opinions lies the greatest promise of wisdom in governmental action."	Louis Dembitz Brandeis
"The Egyptians could run to Egypt, the Syrians into Syria. The only place we could run was into the sea, and before we did that we might as well fight."	Golda Meir
"Marriage means expectations and expectations mean conflict."	Paxton Blair
"A funny thing is if you're out hiking and your friend gets bit by a poisonous snake, tell him you're going for help, then go about ten feet and pretend YOU got bit by a snake. Then start an argument about who's going to get help. A lot of guys will start crying. That's why it makes you feel good when you tell them it was just a joke."	Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"Arguments are like fire-arms which a man may keep at home but should not carry about with him."	Samuel Butler
"Where all is but dream, reasoning and arguments are of no use, truth and knowledge nothing."	John Locke
"The people to fear are not those who disagree with you, but those who disagree with you and are too cowardly to let you know."	Joe Moore
"If we can not trust a freeman with his right to keep and bear arms, then how can we trust him with the right to vote. Surely the right of a freeman to vote has a much greater effect on our collective lives than does any individual's firearm. If one argues that the effect of any one freeman's vote is minimal, then why allow it in the first place? To be armed is to secure one's right to representation."	Thomas Mincher
"The assumed instinctive belief in God has been used by many persons as an argument for His existence. But this is a rash argument, as we should thus be compelled to believe in the existence of cruel and malignant spirits, only a little more powerful than man; for the belief in them is far more general than in a beneficent Diety."	Charles Robert Darwin
