Dear Evan; This is the first time, I heard of the above. I love the analogy, especially the last one; “Small minds discuss people.” That one reminds me of the bad habit of Gossiping. The middle one; “Average minds discuss events.” Brings out the thought of just reading about it for pleasure, and something to talk about. The first one though; “Great minds discuss ideas.” Brings out the thinking, what can be done about it, and the ideas that will bring accomplishment of those ideas
That’s an old favorite. Thanks for the reminder.
