How often do we miss a kind word and an encouraging smile. And immediately in my memory the words of the famous song come up, remade on the occasion:
"Smile, unfamiliar passerby.
Give me a sip of happiness. "
And sometimes just one phrase is enough. The main thing is that there should be something in it that heals the soul and gives birth to a friendly round dance of cheerful thoughts.
Short capacious words penetrating the very inside - this is the pinnacle of the art of art speech.
Let us turn to the great masters of this subtle craft and their precious pearls of wisdom.
