The Pictures


Conversation is, among other things, a mind-reading game and a puzzle. We constantly have to guess why others say what they do. We can never be sure when words will dance with each other, opinions caress, imaginations undress, topics open. But we can become more agile if we wish.

Theodore Zeldin from the opening paragraph of CONVERSATION - How Talk Can Change Our Lives
