Marcel Proust

Conversation on the page should reflect what the story is about. It doesn't have to be realistic in the sense that it's something you heard and plugged into a story.
Lynne Tillman

Conversation augments pleasure and diminishes pain by our having shares in either for silent woes are greatest, as silent satisfaction leas since sometimes our pleasure would be none but for telling of it, and our grief insupportable but for participation.
William Wycherley
Image
Conversation opens our views, and gives our faculties a more vigorous play it puts us upon turning our notions on every side, and holds them up to a light that discovers those latent flaws which would probably have lain concealed in the gloom of unagitated abstraction.
