Conversation is a fine art. It is the art of exchanging thought. It is
an art which anybody can cultivate or master. Not everybody can
paint or play music, but almost everyone can talk. Thus, it
affords the greatest pleasure to the greatest number. “To talk”,
says R.L. Stevenson, “is our chief business in the world and talk
is by far the most accessible of pleasures. It costs nothing in
money, it is all profit. It completes our education, makes friends
and can be enjoyed at any age.”
Conversation is indeed the most teachable of all the arts. All you
need to do is to find a subject that interests you and your
listeners.
Hobbies are, for example, numberless hobbies to talk about. But
the important thing is that you must talk about the other fellow’s
hobby rather than your own. Therein lies the secret of your
popularity. There is nothing that pleases people so much as your
interest in their interest.
It is just as important to know what subjects to avoid and what
subjects to select for good conversation. If you don’t want to be
set down as a bore, avoid certain unpleasant topics. Avoid talking
about yourself unless you are asked to do so. Sickness or death
bores everybody. The only one who willingly listens to such talk is
the doctor, but he gets sad for it. You must also know not only
what to say but also how to say it.
