Quotes by Wendy McElroy

“No one has the right to place one human being in a position of political power over another.”
― Wendy McElroy

“By arguing, I mean argumentation rather than a verbal brawl or a meaningless contest in which people one-up each other. An argument is a purposeful exchange with the purpose being to settle or explore an intellectual dispute. The ideal argument is a cooperative venture in which both parties attempt to arrive at the truth. Ideal arguments rarely happen.”
― Wendy McElroy
