Cross The Street To Avoid Making Aimless

Though Shyness Per Se Was Unacceptable, Reserve Was A Mark Of Good Breeding.

I Get A Lot Of Letters From Introverts Asking How They Can Meet People. The Key Is To Make Sure That You Are Doing Things You Enjoy.

Introverts Living Under The Extroversion Ideal Are Like Women In A Man's World, Discounted Because Of A Trait That Goes To The Core Of Who They Are.

Whoever You Are, Bear In Mind That Appearance Is Not Reality. Some People Act Like Extroverts, But The Effort Costs Them Energy, Authenticity, And Even Physical Health. Others Seem Aloof Or Self-contained, But Their Inner Landscapes Are Rich And Full Of Drama. So The Next Time You See A Person With A Composed Face And A Soft Voice, Remember That Inside Her Mind She Might Be Solving An Equation, Composing A Sonnet, Designing A Hat. She Might, That Is, Be Deploying The Powers Of Quiet.

I'm Insatiably Curious About Human Nature. I Feel Very Lucky That As A Writer I Get To Learn So Much About It Just To Do My Job Right.
