conflict? To suspend things temporarily.
from The Art of Worldly Wisdom Never be afraid to put it out there. 52 Never to be humiliated is the great goal of prudence. It is the sign of a genuine human being and of a noble heart. For a generous heart is not easily extinguished. Passion is the humidity of the soul, and all its excesses weaken thought. If it overflows the mouth, reputation is at stake. Therefore, a man should be a very great master over himself, and nothing, whether in the most fortunate or in the most unfavorable circumstances, can harm his reputation by interfering with his self-control; rather, he can enhance it by showing his superiority.
