Quote by George Bernard Shaw
I learned long ago, never to wrestle with a pig, you get dirty; and besides, the pig likes it.
Summary
This quote is a metaphorical way of expressing the idea that it is not worth engaging or arguing with people who are unreasonable or enjoy causing conflict. The act of "wrestling with a pig" symbolizes trying to confront or reason with someone who thrives on confrontation, resulting in both parties getting "dirty" in the process. The quote suggests that it is better to avoid such individuals, as their enjoyment of conflict makes it futile to engage with them.
