Listening Quote by Natalie Maines

“I did some years of therapy and self-realization, and I just move and think at a slower pace - doesn't make me sound very smart! But really not reacting and doing more listening than talking, and letting people say what they need to say, and then maybe not saying anything at all.” quote by Natalie Maines — Download Open image
