[7]
For he that lives at the dictates of passion will
not hear nor understand the reasoning of one who tries to dissuade him; but if so, how can
you change his mind by argument?
And, speaking generally, passion seems not to be amenable to reason, but only to force.
Aristotle in 23 Volumes, Vol. 19, translated by H. Rackham. Cambridge, MA, Harvard University Press; London, William Heinemann Ltd. 1934.
