Two people, one truth, zero chance either backs down first.
means A clash of views, opinions, or feelings where the parties involved don't see eye to eye.
from Built from 'agreement' plus the negating prefix 'dis-', both ultimately from Latin — 'gratus' meaning pleasing, via Old French 'agreer' (to please or consent). So agreement was originally about mutual pleasure or consent, and disagreement is simply the undoing of that — the moment consent breaks down.
