If all my possessions were taken from me with one exception, I would choose to keep the power of communication, for by it I would soon regain all the rest.
Daniel Webster
The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and the lightning bug.
Mark Twain
Communication is a skill that you can learn. It's like riding a bicycle or typing. If you're willing to work at it, you can rapidly improve the quality of every part of your life.
C. S. Lewis
Of all the life skills available to us, communication is perhaps the most empowering.
Bret Morrison
It took me quite a long time to develop a voice, and now that I have it, I am not going to be silent.
Madeleine Albright
Calvin: Sometimes when I'm talking, my words can't keep up with my thoughts. I wonder why we think faster than we speak.Hobbes: Probably so we can think twice.
Bill Watterson, Calvin & Hobbes
For most of us, technology makes things easier. For a person with a disability, it makes things possible.
Judy Heumann
Technology will never replace great teachers, but technology in the hands of great teachers can be transformational.
George Couros
