Take the two popular words today, ‘information’ and ‘communication’.

They are often used interchangeably, but they signify quite different things. Information is giving out; communication is getting through. S.J. Harris

The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.

George Bernard Shaw

"What once were vices, are now the manners of the day." Seneca

"Good general-purpose manners nowadays may be said to consist in knowing how much you can get

away with." Elizabeth Bowen Howarth et al The secondary origin of diamonds: multi modal radiation tomography of
