"Most of the successful people I've known
are the ones who do more listening than talking."
Bernard M. Baruch
Pip has started saying, "Hear this," before she says something of import. I love it. It's a perfect companion phrase to, "Watch this," which is an extremely common request these days, and it's less cumbersome than, "Listen to this." Whenever she says it, I picture some old English gentleman preparing to read a proclamation to the township. It promises such importance. I may start using it myself.
