A long dispute means that both parties are wrong

Summary

This quote suggests that in a lengthy dispute, it is unlikely that one side is entirely correct and the other entirely wrong.

The quote encourages parties involved in a dispute to reflect on the possibility that both perspectives contain elements of misunderstanding or flawed reasoning, highlighting the importance of seeking compromise and finding common ground to reach a resolution.
