Don't hold anything onto firmly. Fools are stubborn and the stubborn are fools, and the more erroneous their judgment is, the more they hold onto it.

Even when you are right, it is good to make concessions: people will recognize you are right but admire your courtesy. More is lost through holding on than can be won by defeating others. One defends not the truth but rudeness.

There are the heads of iron, that are difficult to convince, hopelessly obstinate.

When whim meets stubborness, they bond forever into foolishness. Be firm in will, not in judgment.

There are exceptional cases, of course, when one shouldn't give in twice: once in judgment and once in execution.
