『The Art of Always Being Right』の主要テーマ
『The Art of Always Being Right』の名言
The interest in truth gives way to vanity.
Modern media training explicitly teaches these ancient arts.
Political debates rarely seek truth - instead becoming exercises in tactical maneuvering.
Dialectic, in contrast, is the art of getting the best of an argument.
The dialectical battlefield isn't fair or noble - it's where human vanity, intellectual limitations, and will to power collide.
