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!

John Gottman is a relationship expert, clinical psychologist, and author and he has developed a system whereby he attempts to predict the likelihood of relationship success in the future based on characteristics of that relationship today. He has also identified what he calls the Four Horsemen, a metaphor for those behaviors which spell the end of a relationship.
In this episode, I examine a quote of his, taken from Malcolm Gladwell's bestseller Blink. I also explore the Four Horsemen and tie it all back to how we might improve our relationships and avoid the pitfalls that lead to heartache.
