The man was a bully. A bully who'd elevated himself to a high-level position, but a bully just the same. No amount of flattery would change how I saw him.

About This Quote

If you want to get along with someone, you must never try to change them. The person in question is the bully and will not change if you try to be nice. It is best to always call a bully what he is and never let his words and actions go by without saying anything. People often want to be bullies and think they can use their position and power to intimidate others into submission.

This only proves the bully's own low-level of intelligence. If people were confident in themselves, no one would ever have to bully them into doing what they wanted.
