Ask Anthony Trollope.

I think Ideas can be - depending on ability - not so much feelings and emotions, as least not concisely which would amount to an oxymoron.Philosophy Explorer wrote:Including your feelings and emotions?

Not everything, but the major ones. This world sucks dingo balls, and I won't be sorry when my life's journey here is done. Pffft!

Yes. Let's stand Sting, David Byrne, and David Bowie right next to each other, so that it takes only one bullet to do the job.

As for feelings, I could, but it would be too blunt. Usually, I put in extra words or replace some direct words with indirect phrases, or allusion, or modification, for diplomacy's sake. I find most people don't appreciate too definite, or too prompt, a reaction.Philosophy Explorer wrote:Including your feelings and emotions?

As for ideas, it's a matter of clarity in communication. When I'm concise, I'm often asked to elaborate. When I take the trouble to say precisely what I mean, somebody usually responds, "Are you saying _x_y_z_ [something quite different]?"
