Quote

It is possible to tell things by a handshake. I like the looking in the eye syndrome. It conveys interest. I like the firm, though not bone crushing shake. The bone crusher is trying too hard to macho it. The clammy or diffident handshake - fairly or unfairly - get me off to a bad start with a person.
