Quotations is about words, written and spoken throughout history. Words speak to us through our eyes and our ears. They enrich our lives, allow us to communicate thoughts to others, and sometimes, last for generations. This podcast explores not only the words, but the speaker, author, figure, or character who originated them. To whom were they said or written? What was their intended effect and on whom? What was the originator thinking? Find out each episode and we discover new quotations, some familiar, some not!

Episode 22 - Phyllis Theroux on Compliments
Wednesday Oct 28, 2020

Phyllis Theroux is an author, journalist, and provider of insight into the always difficult topic of parenting. In fact, this quote comes to us from Parents magazine and speaks to one of the greatest challenges of not only parenting, but life in general, compliments.
Let's be honest, we all like to receive them, but unless we are practiced, giving them can be a real challenge. Well Theroux's quippy, stick-in-your-craw presentation hopefully provides you the motivation to give them more freely, because, as she says, they are highly biodegradable.
