Throw out your conceited opinions, for it is impossible for a person to begin to learn what he thinks he already knows.*
Epictetus
I brought the right words but there was something missing in the speaker I came to be: a listener.**
James Carse
Perhaps we are pondering the same thing…
Yet I am unable to see
what you see,
Nor feel as you feel
what is deeply
formed by your experiences.
Forgive me if I forget this,
And I will–
But hopefully you will find me listening
as hard as I can.
