more ready talkers, more gracious talkers. We must keep whetting "the edge of liveliness" of our conversation! The truth about this matter of talking is that, far more even than our eyes, our conversation is the reflection and expression of our souls, the mark of our personality. The conversation of any group of us together or, if you will, of Catholics or of Quakers or of Americans, when they are together, is the truest index of their culture. Just as truly as the Bible says that by their fruit you shall know them, can one say that by their words one can know them. Our words it is that strike others as sweet or sour, that move them to want more of us, or less. |
