"Conversations are efforts toward good relations. They are an elementary form of reciprocity. They are the exercise of our love for each other. They are the enemies of our loneliness, our doubt, our anxiety, our tendencies to abdicate."

Love this quote. If we are left with nothing else on Earth, the ability to converse in a meaningful way is what I would ask to keep.
Some would say that it derives from our "family resemblance" to a Creator whose self-portrayal is essentially in terms of a conversation. What is the Trinity if not a relational/conversational interplay of persons?
