"Be a good listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves." - Carnegie
The other day I was sitting next to a person I knew fairly well, though not deeply. It occurred to me that there were several things I didn't know about his family, so I started with simple questions, which led to more, and eventually a full-flowered conversation brought us closer together.
The road from acquaintance to friend is paved with interested and selfless questions.
