[Nerves and Common Sense by Annie Payson Call]@TWC D-Link bookNerves and Common Sense CHAPTER XV 4/8
But a conceited man, a self-centered man or a great talker will seldom or never listen. That being the case, what can you expect of a woman who is a nervous talker? The more tired such a woman is the more she talks; the more ill she is the more she talks.
As the habit of nervous talking grows upon a woman it weakens her mind.
Indeed, nervous talking is a steadily weakening process. Some women talk to forget.
If they only knew it was slow mental suicide and led to worse than death they would be quick to avoid such false protection.
If we have anything we want to forget we can only forget it by facing it until we have solved the problem that it places before us, and then working on, according to our best light: We can never really cover a thing up in our minds by talking constantly about something else. Many women think they are going to persuade you of their point of view by talking.
