Today I’m doing something new for me. I’m participating in a meme. I like this one because it is different all the time. This time, the mission (and I chose to accept it) is to list a few of my favorite quotes. Since I LOVE quotes, I knew it was for me.

My quotes, since this is Family on the Phone, will all be about communication. That said, here we go.

  • Good communication is as stimulating as black coffee, and just as hard to sleep after. ~Anne Morrow Lindbergh
  • The newest computer can merely compound, at speed, the oldest problem in the relations between human beings, and in the end the communicator will be confronted with the old problem, of what to say and how to say it. ~Edward R. Murrow
  • When people talk, listen completely. Most people never listen. ~Ernest Hemingway
  • Think like a wise man but communicate in the language of the people. ~William Butler Yeats
  • The way we communicate with others and with ourselves ultimately determines the quality of our lives. ~Anthony Robbins
  • There are four ways, and only four ways, in which we have contact with the world. We are evaluated and classified by these four contacts: what we do, how we look, what we say, and how we say it. ~Dale Carnegie
  • Effective communication is 20% what you know and 80%  about how you feel about what you know. ~Jim Rohn
  • Communication is not only the essence of being human, but also a vital property of life. ~John A. Piece
  • The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that  it has taken place. ~George Bernard Shaw
  • To effectively communicate, we must realize that we are all different in the way we perceive the world and use this understanding as a guide to our communication with others. ~Anthony Robbins
  • We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak. ~Epictetus
  • Communication is the real work of leadership. ~Nitin Nohria

I would like to thank Naida from Randomness for her lovely Meme. I shall be participating again.

  • I love the Epictetus quote - that's one of my favorites, too. And Ernest Hemingway's is a good one too - I don't remember hearing that before.
  • Amy
    Glad you enjoyed them!
  • Lovely quotes. Some very inspirational. Favorite was "When people talk, listen completely. Most people never listen." Very true. I admit to not being a good listerner sometimes. I'll take a look at some quotes. I may do it on Mom's Resource because I'm sure I could find some awesome mommy quotes.
  • Amy
    Don't feel bad, I'm not always the best listener either. Good luck finding your quotes!
  • Meme completed!
