Stop! " Narcissus got to his feet. "This is not right! This person is obviously not awesome, so he must be..." He struggled for the right words. It had probably been a long time since he'd talked about anything other than himself. "He must be tricking us." Apparently Narcissus wasn't completely stupid. Rick Riordan
About This Quote

When you lose a game and your opponent is obviously not awesome, it would only make sense to say “This person is obviously not awesome” and then lose the next game with them. However, there is something that Narcissus was missing. When you lose a game and your opponent is obviously awesome, what you really need to say is "This person is obviously awesome." If you keep saying "this person is obviously not awesome," eventually the word "not" will lose its meaning and you will be stuck in a loop of "not awesome" for eternity.
