“I’m not so sure that live is always better. It is part of the extrovert assumption to value interaction over inner action. Most introverts savor live time with a close friend, because they know there will be plenty of inner action for both of them.

Emailing a friend or posting a blog entry will probably feel much richer, and help us feel much closer, than being up close and impersonal.”

“Let us be grateful to the people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.”
