Summary

This quote highlights how raising one's voice can hinder productive and respectful communication. When someone raises their voice during a conversation, it tends to escalate emotions and create an atmosphere of hostility. It indicates a lack of control and implies a desire to overpower the other participants. By using a calm and respectful tone, we can foster healthier dialogue, encourage active listening, and maintain a higher level of discourse.

Present global culture is a kind of arrogant newcomer. It arrives on the planetary stage following four and a half billion years of other acts, and after looking about for a few thousand years declares itself in possession of eternal truths. But in a world that is changing as fast as ours, this is a prescription for disaster.
