Quote by Jean de La Fontaine

The argument of the strongest is always the best.

The argument of the strongest is always the best.

Summary

According to this quote, the strongest person's perspective or opinion holds the most weight in an argument. In other words, the person with superior physical strength or power is believed to possess the most valid viewpoint. However, this limited perspective fails to consider the possibility that strength alone does not necessarily equate to the best argument or the most justified position. It overlooks the importance of analytical reasoning, logic, empathy, and consideration of different viewpoints which are crucial elements for a strong and balanced argument.
