Doris Lessing

“I understood that I was understanding. I could have understood before, that when George is with Hasan and Hasan is talking, George is hearing things in what Hasan is saying that are quite beyond me. That I can’t hear at all. I could see from George’s face that in quite ordinary things that were said was much much more. I just couldn’t grasp it. It was going too fast for me. It was above my head. The conversation was apparently about not very much. I was thinking in an agonized sort of way, that they weren’t talking about anything important or special. Yet George’s face kept lighting up as he understood the things that were there.”
