I think people should do this more often during group discussions. 3nodding Especially when some people forget parts of what they want to talk about.
"He that would speak, rises. The rest observe a profound silence. When he has finished and sits down, they leave him 5 or 6 minutes to recollect, that, if he has omitted anything he intended to say, or has anything to add, he may rise again and deliver it. To interrupt another, even in common conversation, is reckoned highly indecent" (535).
I totally agree that last part. I hate when people interrupt me when I'm trying to say something. Especially if I'm really going on talking about something.
The piece continues talking about how this is different from the British lifestyle, where the "[British House of Commons] speaker [becomes] hoarse in calling to order" or are "cut off... by the impatient loquacity of those who you converse with, and never suffered to finish it" (535).
