Never Sound Excited. Imagine Yourself At A Dinner Table Back In The United
States With The Local Editor, A Banker, And A Professor Talking Over
Coffee.
Never sound excited. Imagine yourself at a dinner table back in the United
States with the local editor, a banker, and a professor talking over
coffee. You try to tell what it was like, while the maid's boyfriend, a
truck driver, listens from the kitchen. Try to be understood by the truck
driver while not insulting the professor's intelligence.
-- Edward R. Murrow (to a young war correspondent)
