People tend to be “certain” or “appear” a “certain” way until they are that. That’s as much of a part of social reality today than ever.

ALWAYS SAY LESS THAN NECESSARY When you are trying to impress people with words, the more you say, the more common you appear, and the less in control. Even if you are saying something banal, it will seem original if you make it vague, open-ende
