Старайтесь,чтобы людям было приятно делать то , что вы им предлагаете

Проявляйте искренний интерес к другим людям

Улыбайтесь😊

Помните,что на любом языке имя человека-самый сладостный и важный для него звук

Будьте хорошим слушателем. Поощряйте других говорить о самих себе

Говорите о том,что интересует вашего собеседника

Поступайте так,чтобы другой человек почувствовал себя значительным, и делайте это искренне

В споре нельзя победить

Начинайте с похвалы и искреннего признания достоинств собеседника

Прежде чем критиковать другого,поговорите о собственных ошибках

Выражайте одобрение по поводу малейшей удачи и поощряйте каждый успех.Будьте «искренни в своей оценке и щедры на похвалу»

Создавайте человеку хорошую репутацию,которую он будет стараться оправдать

Единственный способ получить преимущество в споре - это уклониться от него

Проявляйте уважение к мнению другого человека.Никогда не говорите, что он не прав

Если вы не правы,признайте это быстро и решительно

Начинайте с дружеского тона

С самого начала поставьте вашего собеседника перед необходимостью отвечать вам «ДА»

Предоставляйте другому человеку возможность выговориться

Искренне пытайтесь рассмотреть ситуацию с точки зрения другого человека

Проявляйте сочувствие к мыслям и желаниям других

Не критикуйте,воздерживайтесь от осуждения

Заставьте своего собеседника страстно чего-то пожелать

Writers are not just people who sit down and write. They hazard themselves. Every time you compose a book your composition of yourself is at stake.

I am not super-ambitious. I am not a classically amazing singer or anything.

Translating from one language to another is the most delicate of intellectual exercises; compared to translation, all other puzzles, from bridge to crosswords, seem trivial and vulgar. To take a piece of Greek and put it in English without spilling a drop; what a nice skill!

I don’t understand why people think that having a gay child means they failed as a parent. Disowning your child means you failed as a parent.

I might be one of the most flamboyant characters New Zealand has ever seen, but my intentions are good, and I would like to see New Zealand flourish.

I think some authors suffer from a need to try to prove that they're clever and educated. I try not to suffer from that. I would rather sacrifice my own narrative in the exercise of writing a biography. So I'm not worried about whether I'm clever.

Generally, I move in the direction of art.

The blues is like a planet. It's an enormous topic. You can't ignore the impact that it has had and continues to have on the whole musical culture. It's a tree that everyone is swinging from. Without it, I don't know where I would be. It's indelible and indispensable.

Hotel life is about the same in every latitude.

The Hispanic culture is finding its way into the American culture. Places like Miami are going to be centers for that influence - places like Los Angeles and, certainly, cities in Texas.

The cheerful live longest in years and afterwards in our regards. Cheerfulness is the off shoot of goodness.

Until the day of his death no man can be sure of his courage.

I don't want to interview people for the purpose of developing a world view and pushing that on people.

You must clear out what you don't want, to make room for what you do want to arrive.

I remember the first time I met my wife, Elisa. As a favor to a friend, I had gone to her home to pick up her sister, Frances. Elisa opened the door, and at least for me, it was love at first sight.

On the other hand, for the whole human being who wills, feels, and represents, external reality is given simultaneously and with as much certitude as his own self.

I just love bossy women. I could be around them all day. To me, bossy is not a pejorative term at all. It means somebody's passionate and engaged and ambitious and doesn't mind leading.

The last time I had to make a career decision, I was 17. I could have gone to Ballet Theatre or National Ballet of Canada. There were options. But as I became exposed to the Robbins repertoire, I realized that there was a living genius in the house.
