Tragedy of Attack
When you open your "dialogue" with emotional words of attack and insult, the other party stops listening to your arguments. All he wants is to get his own insults back to you or worse to plot killing you. That's as simple as that. Bad acts lead to bad responses. But you forget because you are fucking busy attacking or defending. You don't stop and think until things get overheated and out of control. You now have to spend the rest of your life watching over your shoulder because you fail to give the other guy respect due to the fact that deep down you think you are much cleverer and smarter than him. And he is tbe one who should show you respect, not the other way around. So because of ego, you let yourself get carried away.
Respect is always a two-away street, as is love. Those who think differently will be in for the world of hurt. They don't know an eye for an eye makes everybody blind.
A guy like Buddha was beyond attack. He didn't have to. He knew. And he simply was calm and unperturbed for he knew life was mostly a long tragedy with occasinal flashes of comedy.
