- Proving your words using only words proves your argument is empty of reality.
- Judging the truthfulness of words using only words is judging the wind to be the wind.
- Comparing the truthfulness of words using only words is comparing emptiness with emptiness.
- A criminal court does not accept words as evidence because words can only prove themselves.
- A common failing argument strategy is to compare the principles of the opposing argument with higher principles. Such arguments are dishonest because they do not consider the situation, the possibility of application, and the history of results of such applications, but only which sounds better, not does better.
