In a way song writing can almost be detrimental, because suddenly you find an outlet that is a kind of cheating. You don’t need to have direct communication. You can say, ‘I can’t describe it to you, but I will record it and send it to you.’ – James Blunt
To listen well is as powerful a means of communication and influence as to talk well. – John Marshall
