I
say the earth did shake when I was born.
-Owen Glendower
King Henry The Fourth Part I Act III, scene i, line 21
Glendower here is going to insist that the earth literally
shook when he was born, and Hotspur’s going to argue with him. And in this
scene it’s hard to tell which is the bigger fool.
I’ve learned that there are a lot of people out there like
Glendower. They are convinced that they are right and they’re not going to back
down NO MATTER WHAT. And do you want to know how I deal with this kind of
person? I don’t. I walk away. I will not waste my time with this sort.
Can you think of anyone who reminds you of Glendower? I can.
