When a man is wrong and won't admit it, he always gets angry

Summary

This quote highlights the tendency of individuals to become angry when they refuse to acknowledge their mistakes or accept their wrongdoings. It suggests that anger often arises as a defense mechanism, serving to protect the person's ego and deflect from their inability to admit their faults. In such situations, admitting and taking responsibility for one's errors is crucial in fostering personal growth and maintaining healthy relationships. Failure to do so may result in a continuous cycle of anger and denial.

How little we know of what there is to know. I wish that I were going to live a long time instead of going to die today because I have learned much about life in these four days; more, I think than in all other time. I'd like to be an old man to really know. I wonder if you keep on learning or if there is only a certain amount each man can understand. I thought I knew so many things that I know nothing of. I wish there was more time.
