May these quotes about Communicates inspire and motivate you.
I think one of the finest gifts I can give
my friends in the holiday season is to pause
with a long enough quality to actually SEE them.
My calm, unhurried presence communicates
this gift of a message, "I see you. I recognize you.
I remember our times of together
and am contributing right now to another quality memory.
I value you and honor and take the time,
right this moment to pause long enough to truly notice you."
- Mary Anne Radmacher
What we've got here is failure to communicate.
- the movie Cool Hand Luke
If what is seen and experienced is portrayed
in the language of logic,
we are engaged in science.
If it is communicated through forms
whose connections are not accessible
to the conscious mind but are
recognized intuitively as meaningful,
then we are engaged in art.
- Albert Einstein
This communicating of a man's self to his friend
works two contrary effects;

We have nearly complete misunderstanding between
people of different faiths in Lake Wobegon,

It's when you are trying to convince another person to think

based your plan change - they always do.
The challenge is to retain your goals

Relax and stay flexible in order to reach
your goals and maintain your happiness.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
If you have an emotional reaction in the presence of someone,
your heart is telling you that you have
not resolved your issues with them.
In other words, you have not truly forgiven that person.
All of this begs the question, how do we forgive?
First, cease lying to yourself and stop telling yourself stories
about why you behave the way you do.
Stop blaming your behavior on other people
and take responsibility for your emotional reactions.
If you could forgive all the people in your life
who have hurt or wounded you
it would be possible to be in control of your behavior
instead of being in reaction to other people all of the time.
Imagine living life without experiencing
a constant emotional roller-coaster of pain, anger, and jealousy!
That would be bliss!
- Sheri Rosenthal
Constant development is the law of life,
and a man who always tries to maintain his dogmas
in order to appear consistent

There is no doubt that life can be a bumpy ride.

as you did on that roller coaster.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

What we call the beginning is often the end.
