Conversations.

Great people talk about ideas, average people talk about things, and small people talk about wine.  – Fran Lebowitz But there’s a little of each in all of us, and I assure you many of those great, average and small people speak of their ideas and things over a glass of wine or two and pause to talk about the quality of that glass as well. Also, it is not people who are great or average or small but the way we are in the world.  We can speak of ideas, but speaking isn’t doing; we can speak of things but know nothing about them; we can speak of wine as a pseudo-connoisseur or a true lover of the of the beverage in all high or low variations. Rowling as Dumbledore said it best, “It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.”
