Conversation: How Talk Can Change Our Lives

Theodore Zeldin (Hidden Spring, 2000)

"Conversation is not just about conveying information or sharing emotions, not just a way of putting ideas into people's heads. Conversation is a meeting of minds with different memories and habits. When minds meet, they don't just exchange facts: they transform them, engage in new trains of thought. Conversation doesn't just reshuffle the cards: it creates new cards. That's the part that interests me."
