Agreement and Disagreement

George Santayana, letter to Charles Augustus Strong (September 15, 1939):
Of course, I like agreement, it warms the heart, but I don’t expect it; and I like disagreement too, when it is intelligent and carries a thought further, rather than contradicts it a priori, from a different point of departure. These different points of departure make discussion futile and unpleasant.
