Each "Communication Corner" essay is self-contained; however, they build on each other. For best results, before reading this essay and doing the exercise, go to the first essay "How an Ugly Duckling Became a Swan," then read each succeeding essay. Pithy quotations are wonderful things. The very best of them illuminate thoughts and concepts in ways that intrigue and stay in the mind. What could be better than that?
