O, sir, it is my habit that when someone comes to me, I ask
"Sir, do you wish to speak or listen?"
If he says, "I will speak,"
I listen for three days and nights in a row,
unless he runs away and leaves me.
If he says, "I will listen," then I talk.
However, I do not want us talking together
so that I start speaking
and he interrupts my words.--Shams-e-Tabrizi
