"The most important thing in all human relationships is conversation, but people donâ€™t talk anymore, they donâ€™t sit down to talk and listen. They go to the theater, the cinema, watch television, listen to the radio, read books, but they almost never talk. If we want to change the world, we have to go back to a time when warriors would gather around a fire and tell stories."

-- Paulo Coelho
