Summary

This quote suggests that if individuals hold steadfastly to their own set of principles and are unwilling to compromise or be flexible, they may find it difficult to connect with and understand others.

The great orators who rule the assemblies by the brilliancy of their eloquence are in general men of the most mediocre political talents: they should not be opposed in their own way; for they have always more noisy words at command than you.
