P. 41
Which is more important, the question or the answer?
How many ask a question just to fine out if others have
an answer or if their answer is the same? How many
question just for the sake of asking? How many ask a
question to divert from the subject under discussion?
How many answer to impose their authority or opinion?
How many answer a different question than that asked?
How many answer a question with a question? How
many answer? See how many questions I've just asked? I
don't need an answer to any of them. I'm sure these
questions have created further questions in your mind.
I'll end this post by asking again, which is more
important, the question or the answer.
