Pondered Garrulousness

Two great quotes from last Saturday's Guardian Review (yes, I'm behind) . . .

Allan Cameron in his book In Praise of the Garrulous describes writing as pondered garrulousness. He also says this: Talking, listening, reading and writing add little to our GDP, but a great deal to our wellbeing.

As bloggers, I think we all know instinctively what he means.
