Quote by Oriana Fallaci
Listening to someone talk isn't at all like listening to their words played over on a machine. What you hear when you have a face before you is never what you hear when you have before you a winding tape.
Summary
This quote suggests that there is a significant difference between listening to someone speak in person and listening to a recording of their words. When you have someone directly in front of you, you are not just processing their words, but also their facial expressions, tone of voice, body language, and other non-verbal cues. These additional elements cannot be replicated when listening to a recording on a machine, resulting in a different and less complete perception of the speaker's message.
