There comes a point when you win, and you can either soothe the loser into thinking there was something in it for them or kick them while they're down to make sure they know what just happened.

About This Quote

When one side in a dispute is in the right and the other side is in the wrong, we often leave the loser feeling like everything was a waste of time and money. Add to that, we tend to insult and demean, and get frustrated when they get angry. But this quote by Robert L. Scott shows an entirely different way of looking at things. In his eyes, it's better to help your opponent get back on their feet so they can understand what just happened.
