Quote of the day

The real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing at the right place but to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.
- Dorothy Nevill

  1. Oh, how frustrating! What is the wrong thing at (God only knows) the tempting moment? Our judgements about the right and wrong moments are so subjective. Can they be gauged in an objective way? As the proverb says "the road to hell is paved with good intentions", but aren't intentions what really counts even if they are misconstrued? Misunderstandings can always be rectified while bad intentions, never!

  2. The crux of the matter is not the art of conversation, but the art of communication! They are not the same thing, believe me. The things unsaid always loom somewhere there and even if they aid conversation, they do not always aid communication! Isn't the latter more crucial than the former?
