Win Through Your Actions, Never Through Argument - Robert Greene

This quote was added by kornage
Any momentary triumph you think you have gained through argument is really a Pyrrhic victory: The resentment and ill-will you stir up are stronger and last longer than any momentary change of opinion. It is much more powerful to get others to agree with you through your actions, without saying a word. Demonstrate, do not explicate.
