There's a certain intimacy involved. You have to get very close to the person who's threatening you. It's the opposite of what your instinct is.

I just really like her voice. There's a certain intimacy to her singing that appeals to me. But she also swings well, and there's a bluesy quality to her voice too, kind of like Ella Fitzgerald.

Being heard is so close to being loved that for the average person they are almost indistinguishable.

One may discover a new side to his most intimate friend when for the first time he hears him speak in public. He will be stranger to him as he is more familiar to the audience. The longest intimacy could not foretell how he would behave then.

Depending on the situation, sometimes you can know a person better in ten minutes than someone you have crossed paths with all your life.

You always have to remember your place. You can be close to the person, but you must know who you are and who he is. It's a fine balance. A delicate balance. It depends on your upbringing.
