"The more elaborate our means of communication, the less we communicate." ― Joseph Priestley Topic(s): Communication More From Joseph Priestley "What I have known with respect to myself, has tended much to lessen both my admiration, and my contempt, of others." More In Communication "We emphasize that such a form of communication is not absent in man, however evanescent a naturally given object may be for him, split as it is in its submission to symbols."― Jacques Lacan "Words and pictures can work together to communicate more powerfully than either alone."― William Albert Allard "The interest in the supernatural in a very generic sense and in the spiritual is not in itself a factor that helps the communication of the Christian faith."― Karl Lehmann
