Hey there!
I take it we're talking about <em>The Phantom Tollbooth.
</em>In this story, the two Kingdoms- Digitopolis and Dictionopolis, ruled by the Mathemagician and King Azaz, are not at peace.
<em />The Mathemagician believes that numbers are better than words, and Azaz thinks otherwise, and they refuse to talk with each other.
However, they both are the same in one aspect because they both agree on something, and that is that they always will agree that they always will disagree with each other.
Also, towards the end of the book (no spoilers!) they begin to realize the true meaning of working together to save the day.
Hope this helps
Answer:
Demodocus for his gift of song.
Explanation:
In Phaeacia, Odysseus made this statement as a result of the fact that Demodocus sand a song about his quarrel with Achilles.
The statement "he respects one person "more than any man alive." made by Odysseus to Demodocus is more of an acknowledgement of how good the song was as well as a compliment.
