“What happens when you worry continuously about ending up alone, the way Rachel does? The answer is that you actually lose your mind—or rather, your ability to think clearly.”
Jenny Taitz, How to Be Single and Happy: Science-Based Strategies for Keeping Your Sanity While Looking for a Soul Mate

Mortimer J. Adler
“The first division is between playful and serious conversations. By playful conversation, I mean all forms of talk that have no set purpose, no objective to achieve, no controlling direction. In addition, like play itself, which is that form of human activity in which we engage purely for the pleasure inherent in the activity itself, conversation that is playful in intent rather than seriously motivated is conversation that is enjoyable for its own sake, and not pursued”
Mortimer J. Adler, How to Speak How to Listen

Mortimer J. Adler
“What I have in mind when I use the phrase “personal conversation” is often called a “heart-to-heart talk.”
Mortimer J. Adler, How to Speak How to Listen

Mortimer J. Adler
“Suck talk is concerned with emotional problems of deep concern to the persons involved. It is deeply serious, probably more serious than any other kind of talk, for it aims to remove emotional misunderstandings or to alleviate, if not eliminate, emotional tensions.”
Mortimer J. Adler, How to Speak How to Listen
