“Strong and bitter words indicate a weak cause ”

Victor Hugo

Simplified Meaning:

When someone uses harsh or angry words, it often means they don't have a strong reason or good evidence to support their argument. For example, imagine two kids arguing about who gets to use a toy. One kid starts yelling and saying mean things, while the other calmly explains their side of the story. The kid who's yelling probably doesn't have a good reason and thinks being loud will win the argument. This can also be seen in debates or discussions at work. If a colleague gets very defensive and rude when questioned, it might mean their idea isn't very solid or well thought out. In our daily lives, if we find ourselves getting upset and using strong language, it's a good sign to step back and think if we have a valid point. Instead, we should focus on having clear and calm conversations, which shows confidence in our perspective. This approach can help us communicate better and avoid unnecessary conflicts.
