In order to understand people, we have to understand their way of life and approach. If we wish to convince them, we have to use their language in the narrow sense of the mind. Something that goes even much further than that is not the appeal to logic and reason, but some kind of emotional awareness of the other people Picture Quote #1

Remember always that there not so very much difference between various people as we seem to imagine. Maps and atlases show us countries in different colors.

All the nations and peoples are too closely knit together today for any one of them to imagine that it can live apart.

There are two things that have to happen before an idea catches on. One is that the idea should be good. The other is that it should fit in with the temper of the age. If it does not, even a good idea may well be passed by Picture Quote #1

Unable to play themselves, they dislike the play of others Picture Quote #1
