I?m more a writer than a speaker, and I?ve always admired great writers more than great speakers, because writers are able to deliver both tone and content much clearer and with more depth. As a reader, as opposed to an audience member watching someone speak, I retain more more of the message.
Paul Graham?s ?Writing and Speaking? essay hits home my sentiments on writers versus speakers.
Favorite line:
?Being a really good speaker is not merely orthogonal to having good ideas, but in many ways pushes you in the opposite direction.?
