“Beyond the Noise of Words Listening is an art not easily come by, but in it there is beauty and great understanding.

We do not listen simply; there is always the intervening screen of our own thoughts, conclusions, and prejudices…. To listen there must be an inward quietness, a freedom from the strain of acquiring, a relaxed attention.”
