Summary

This quote suggests that there is a tendency for individuals who lack knowledge to be the most inclined to engage in arguments. It highlights the paradoxical nature of such individuals, as they confidently express their opinions despite having limited understanding or expertise on the subject matter. This observation may stem from the fact that those who possess less knowledge may lack the self-awareness to recognize their own limitations, leading them to engage in debates without fully understanding the issues at hand.

'I was not expecting quite so much tenderness of heart,' he said at last to Cacambo, who replied: 'You've excelled yourself this time, Master; you have just despatched the two lovers of these young ladies.' '-Their lovers! Is it possible? You're making fun of me, Cacambo; how could anyone believe in such a thing?' - 'My dear Master,' retorted Cacambo, 'you are always astounished by everything; why do you find it so strange that in some countries it is apes who enjoy the favours of young ladies?
