I have always suspected that correctness is the last refuge of those who have nothing to say.


I have always suspected that correctness is the last refuge

Summary

This quote suggests that when someone resorts to correctness or being technically accurate in a discussion or argument, it may be because they lack meaningful or original ideas to contribute. It implies that some individuals use correctness as a way to mask their inability to engage in deeper or more relevant discussions, possibly as a means of protecting their ego or maintaining a superficial appearance of knowledge. This quote reflects the belief that true substance and significance lie beyond mere correctness.
