What you do speaks so loud that I cannot hear what you say.

What you do speaks so loud that I cannot hear what you say.
It is very seldom that in debate any one of two evenly matched antagonists will succeed in actually convincing or converting the other. But it is equally seldom that, in a properly conducted argument, either antagonist will end up holding exactly the same position as that with which he began. Concessions, refinements, and adjustments will occur and each initial position will have undergone modification, even if it remains ostensibly the same.
