St. Augustine apparently said, "audi alteram pertem": hear the other side.
Dum spiro, spero: while I breathe, I hope (do emo kids breathe, then? xD)
Epicurean! "Dum vivimus, vivamus!"
- Argumentum ad crumenam --- argument based on financial considerations (ho ho ho, $$$$)
- Argumentum ad hominem --- argument based on the principles of the opponent ("you are a fat cow, therefore you are wrong!")
- Argumentum ad ignoratiam --- argument founded on ignorance ("the moon is made of cheese. Cheddar, I think.")
- Argumentum ad verecundiam --- argument appealing to decency ("BUT THAT MAN HAS NO CLOTHES!!")
