Societies have always been shaped more by the nature of the media by which men communicate than by the content of the communication.
Evil communication corrupts good manners. I hope to live to hear that good communication corrects bad manners.
Humor is the affectionate communication of insight.
One thing I've learned to appreciate as I've gotten a little older is direct forms of communication.
Our most tragic error may have been our inability to establish a rapport and a confidence with the press and television with the communication media. I don't think the press has understood me.

Nurses serve their patients in the most important capacities. We know that they serve as our first lines of communication when something goes wrong or when we are concerned about health.
But communication is two-sided - vital and profound communication makes demands also on those who are to receive it... demands in the sense of concentration of genuine effort to receive what is being communicated.

Communication is about being effective not always about being proper.
