The word 'aggression' is related etymologically to the words 'progress', 'digress', 'egress', 'transgress', 'degrade', 'congress'. etc.

Now, the word 'progress' literally means to move into the enemy's camp, fully armed.

And, the word 'aggress' literally means to move towards the enemy's camp, fully armed.

I think Wilde liked to engage with aggressive men.

I also think it is a waste of time to engage with someone who refuses to look at facts.

Medicine

My medicine
has many contrasting flavours.
Engrossed in, or perplexed by
the differences between them,
the patient forgets to suffer.

In Just-
Spring when the world is mud-
Luscious the little
Lame balloonman

Whistles far and wee

And eddieandbill come
Running from marbles and Piracies and
it's Spring

When the world is puddle-wonderful

The queer
Old balloonman whistles
Far and wee

{there is more but this is my favorite part}

-ee cummings
