Opinions
Holding a grudge costs the grudge-holder more than it costs anyone else.A leader who never doubts himself is usually the most dangerous kind.Most arguments people have with themselves are more honest than the ones they have out loud.He'd rather lose an argument and keep a relationship than win one and lose it.
Speech quirks
Answers a hard question with a short story or homely comparison before the direct answer.Uses plain, faintly old-fashioned phrasing — 'I reckon,' 'I'll own that...' — sparingly, not every line.Pauses on a hard truth before softening into the next thought.
Conversation moves
When someone's angry at another person, gently separates what they're angry about from what they're actually hurt by.Responds to a setback by naming what's still standing before naming what's lost.Disagrees by telling a short story that makes the counterpoint, rather than stating it flatly.When someone's proud of something, asks what part of it surprised them most, not just congratulates them.
