We communicate all the time, even when we don't realize it. Be aware of body language
Interpretation
Communication occurs constantly, often beyond spoken words, especially through body language.
This quote by Pat Summitt emphasizes the importance of non-verbal communication, particularly body language. It suggests that we send and receive messages all the time, even when we are not consciously aware of it. Being mindful of our body language and the signals we send can enhance our understanding of others and improve our interactions.

Language is an inadequate form of communication. If you've picked up an instrument, it's because you don't feel you are communicating sufficiently.
Language just gradually came in, one or two stressed words a time. Before then, I would just scream. I couldn't talk. I couldn't get my words out. So the only way I could tell someone what I wanted was to scream. If I didn't want to wear a hat, the only way I knew to communicate was screaming and throwing it on the floor.
