If we open a quarrel between the past and the present, we shall find that we have lost the future.
Winston Churchill
A liberal is a man too broad minded to take his own side in a quarrel.
Robert Frost
He that blows the coals in quarrels he has nothing to do with has no right to complain if the sparks fly in his face.
Benjamin Franklin
The longer a man lives in this world the more he must be convinced that all domestic quarrels had better never be obtruded on the public; for, let the husband be right, or let him be wrong, there is always a sympathy existing for women which is certain to give the man the worst of it.
Benjamin Haydon

Coarse kindness is at least better than coarse anger; and in all private quarrels the duller nature is triumphant by reason of its dullness.
George Eliot
We are sure to be losers when we quarrel with ourselves; it is a civil war, and in all such contentions, triumphs are defeats.
Charles Caleb Colton
Two things, well considered, would prevent many quarrels: first, to have it well ascertained whether we are not disputing about terms, rather than things; and, secondly, to examine whether that on which we differ is worth contending about.
Charles Caleb Colton
When worthy men fall out, only one of them may be faulty at the first; but if strife continue long, commonly both become guilty.

Persons unmask their evilest qualities when they do quarrel.
George Herbert
The quarrels of lovers are like summer storms; everything is more beautiful when they have passed.
Madame Suzanne Curchod Necker
In love quarrels the party that loves the most is always most willing to acknowledge the greater fault.

From lightest words sometimes the direst quarrel springs.
Marcus Porcius Cato
