Dialogue vs Discussion

“Non-violence means dialogue, using our language, the human language. Dialogue means compromise; respecting each other’s rights; in the spirit of reconciliation there is a real solution to conflict and disagreement. There is no hundred percent winner, no hundred percent loser—not that way but half-and-half. That is the practical way, the only way.”
Dalai Lama XIV
Discussion has same roots as percussion, concussion. It means holding on to your own beliefs no matter what just the opposite of dialogue. It can be violent dissing and cussing each other!
