Miscommunication is the scandal that motivates the very concept of communication in the first place. ~ John Durham Peters
Miscommunication quotes by John Durham Peters
Between what is said and not meant, and what is meant and not said, most of love is lost. ~ Kahlil Gibran
Miscommunication quotes by Kahlil Gibran
When we don't directly ask for clarification, we tend to fill in the gaps with negative thoughts. These eventually become rooted in our minds as truths, and then everyone gets stuck in a cycle of misunderstanding and miscommunication. ~ Trish Cook
Miscommunication quotes by Trish Cook
Most of our life is miscommunication, and when you add a language barrier to it, it just becomes total mayhem and confusion. It just adds to it with all of the cultural differences. It could be an American family meeting another American family and you could still have a total clash. With family, it's like visiting another planet. ~ Julie Delpy
Miscommunication quotes by Julie Delpy
Avoid miscommunication. The price you pay for it is horrendous. ~ Shiv Khera
Miscommunication quotes by Shiv Khera
All too often, new hires have a different expectation of their job and responsibilities than the organization does. Any miscommunication during the recruiting process needs to be cleared up ASAP. Whenever possible, give new employees a written plan of objectives and responsibilities. ~ Jay Samit
Miscommunication quotes by Jay Samit
Our words are often only vague, inadequate descriptions of our thoughts. Something gets lost in translation every time we try to express our thoughts in words. And when the other person hears our words, something gets lost in translation again, because words mean different things to different people. "A long time" may mean 10 hours to one person, but 10 days to another. So when a thought is formed in my brain, and my mouth expresses it in words, and your ears hear it, and your brain processes it, your brain and my brain never truly see exactly the same thing. Communication is always just an approximation. ~ Oliver Gaspirtz
Miscommunication quotes by Oliver Gaspirtz
If busyness, workaholism, unforgiveness, strife, child-rearing, careers, separate interests, boredom, or miscommunication has crept in between you and your wife, God can work through your prayers to bring down the wall that separates you, melt the armor that has been put on for self-protection, and mold you together in unity. ~ Stormie O'martian
Miscommunication quotes by Stormie O'martian
Well, it's really no use our talking in the way we have been doing if the words we use mean something different to each of us ... and nothing. ~ Malcolm Bradbury
Miscommunication quotes by Malcolm Bradbury
Most changes in music, most exciting things that happen in music, occur through a miscommunication between people "I thought you said this." Poetry comes out of that too. ~ Tom Waits
Miscommunication quotes by Tom Waits
We are designed for harmony, an ebb and flow that's almost inconceivable it's so flawless. So when things go wrong and our cells can't communicate with each other, or there is miscommunication, there is a direct biological link to why we don't think clearly, we don't feel right, and our lives get stalled.
It happens when a child gets abused.
It happens when a brain gets physically wounded.
It happens when fear or pain is so great it overrides everything else.
It happens during times of prolonged stress.
It happens in the throes of depression.
It happens when the brain gets pounded with negativity.
And sometimes we just don't know why the wires in our brains get crossed. ~ Toni Sorenson
Miscommunication quotes by Toni Sorenson
Bridge miscommunications by talking to parents, hearing their stories, and learning how they've shaped yours. ~ Jason L. Ma
Miscommunication quotes by Jason L. Ma
Bill O'Reilly: I'll tell you why it's not a scam. In my opinion, all right? Tide goes in, tide goes out. Never a miscommunication. You can't explain that. You can explain why the tide goes in…
David Silverman: Tide goes in, tide goes out…?
O'Reilly: Yeah, see, the water - the tide comes in and it goes out, Mr. Silverman. It always comes in…
Silverman: Maybe it's Thor up on Mount Olympus who's making the tides go in and out… [Fox News, The O'Reilly Factor, 4 January 2011] ~ David Silverman
Miscommunication quotes by David   Silverman
Moscow and Washington have evolved a delicate process for 'de-confliction' in the tight Syrian airspace, where accidents or miscommunication could be disastrous. ~ David Ignatius
Miscommunication quotes by David Ignatius
I mean ... " Dennis was saying, looking pointedly at Mave, but Mave was watching the waitress approach. Oh, life, oh, sweet, forgiven for the ice ... He grabbed Mave's wrist. There was always an emergency. And then there was love. And then there was another emergency. That was the sandwiching of it. Emergency. Love. Emergency. "I mean, it's not as if you've been dozing off," Dennis was saying, his voice reaching her now, high and watery. "I mean, correct me if I'm wrong," he said, "but I don't think I've been having this conversation alone." He tightened his grip. "I mean, have I? ~ Lorrie Moore
Miscommunication quotes by Lorrie Moore
The longer the silence remains untouched the longer the miscommunication creates its own stories. ~ Christina Strigas
Miscommunication quotes by Christina Strigas
The death of a friendship was usually slow and insidious, like the wearing away of a hillside after years of too much rain. A handful of misunderstandings, a season of miscommunication, the passing of time, and where once stood two women with a dozen years of memories and tears and conversation and laughter - where once stood two women closer than sisters - now stood two strangers. ~ Karen Kingsbury
Miscommunication quotes by Karen Kingsbury
I feel like the biggest failure of humans is miscommunication. We can't communicate with each other-we can fight, we can kill, we can do those things well. ~ Nate Lowman
Miscommunication quotes by Nate Lowman
Also, although the great majority of the letters I've received from Hmong readers have been positive, most of the negative ones have criticized me for telling a story that was not mine to tell. I am no lover of identity politics; I believe that anyone should be allowed to write about anyone. Still, I would have harbored the same proprietary resentment had I been they. It was exactly how I felt thirty years ago, when women's voices were harder to hear because men were drowning them out. Now that young Hmong writers are starting to publish - including Mai Neng Moua, who edited a landmark literary anthology called Bamboo Among the Oaks, and Kao Kalia Yang, who wrote a fierce, sad memoir called The Latehomecomer - I am happy to shut up and listen. I hope The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down is settling into its proper place not as the book about the Hmong but as a book about communication and miscommunication across cultures. ~ Anne Fadiman
Miscommunication quotes by Anne Fadiman
Which is why we have now added a vow to our friendship that we will never ever "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?" each other. That at we will always talk things out and never allow miscommunication to derail our relationship.

But the whole conversation made me think about times in my life when I've felt that way, like I've been dropped with no sign that it was about to happen. And I think Gulley is right- it's the worst feeling in the world because it leaves you feeling completely helpless. ~ Melanie Shankle
Miscommunication quotes by Melanie Shankle
You asked me to be an open book. As I've already told you, I am. Anything you need to know about me can be found. Don't confuse me, a paperback, with a book on tape. ~ Darnell Lamont Walker
Miscommunication quotes by Darnell Lamont Walker
Some of the pressure squeezing the hell out of my chest lessened. I loved Kat. I was in love with her, and I was damn lucky she was alive. Despite all the craziness, the arguing and fighting, the lies and the miscommunication, I was in love with her. Was that such a shock? Not really. Truth be told, I fell for her the first time she mouthed off at me. I just hadn't fully admitted it to myself. ~ Jennifer L. Armentrout
Miscommunication quotes by Jennifer L. Armentrout
Miscommunication is the number one cause of all problems; communication is your bridge to other people. Without it, there's nothing. So when it's damaged, you have to solve all these problems it creates. ~ Earl Sweatshirt
Miscommunication quotes by Earl Sweatshirt
It's very important to choose our words very carefully because miscommunication leads to misunderstanding, which rarely leads to anything good. ~ Charles F. Glassman
Miscommunication quotes by Charles F. Glassman
It's tricky to mix friends and business, and I've learned this lesson the hard way a few times (you'd think I'd learn after the first time!). This one particular friend and I had a solid friendship when we started working together. Everything seemed to click, and I felt like I could trust and rely on this person. Then, we had a miscommunication and a bit of an argument. If you've ever worked with a friend or family member, you probably know that these arguments feel 100 times more emotional. ~ Jason SurfrApp
Miscommunication quotes by Jason SurfrApp
Why do you like me? Why can't you tell I'm not that into you? ~ Kristen Roupenian
Miscommunication quotes by Kristen Roupenian
In a French accent developed through a lifetime of using English I said, 'Hello sir, I would like to row the English Channel in a bath please.'
What actually arrived in the ear of the French Navy man was, 'Hello sire, I would like to fight a condom across a bath if you please. ~ Tim FitzHigham
Miscommunication quotes by Tim FitzHigham
Between two brains, there will always be misunderstandings and lies caused by parasitic smells, drafts and poor-quality reception. ~ Bernard Werber
Miscommunication quotes by Bernard Werber
When I think about what it would take to achieve freedom from all psychological stuff, the response that comes is this: life is about stuff. Stuff is part of being alive. There is no way out of this while you are still living. There will be confusion, pain, miscommunication, misinterpretation, maladaptive patterns of behavior, unhelpful emotional reactions, weird personality traits, neurosis and possibly much worse. There will be power plays, twisted psychological games, people with major personality disorders (which may include you), and craziness. The injuries continue right along with the healing and eventually the injuries win and we die. This is a fundamental teaching of the Buddha. I wish the whole Western Buddhist World would just get over this notion that these practices are all about getting to our Happy Place where nothing can ever hurt us or make us neurotic and move on to actually mastering real Buddhist practice rather than chasing some ideal that will never appear. ~ Daniel M. Ingram
Miscommunication quotes by Daniel M. Ingram
No Communication is better then Miscommunication. ~ Parvez3786
Miscommunication quotes by Parvez3786
I learned that effective communication starts with the understanding that there is MY point of view, (my truth), and someone else's point of view (his truth). Rarely is there one absolute truth, so people who believe that they speak THE truth are very silencing of others. When we realize and recognize that we can see things only from our own perspective, we can share our views in a nonthreatening way. Statements of opinion are always more constructive in the first person "I" form. The ability to listen is as important as the ability to speak. Miscommunication is always a two way street. ~ Sheryl Sandberg
Miscommunication quotes by Sheryl Sandberg
90% of all management problems are caused by miscommunication. ~ Dale Carnegie
Miscommunication quotes by Dale Carnegie
A lot of beefs in the music industry are caused from miscommunication and just not really understanding what's going on, having people in your ear saying this is what somebody did, or this is what somebody did to you. ~ Ludacris
Miscommunication quotes by Ludacris
Remember that misuse of language can lead to miscommunication, and that miscommunication leads to everything that has ever happened in the whole of the world. ~ Joseph Fink
Miscommunication quotes by Joseph Fink
Renaldina told Renaldo and Renaldo told me, so that's two points for possible miscommunication, especially when you consider that she's deaf and he's blind, so it went through two language variations and two incompatible methods of travel, like mule to submarine. ~ Jarod Kintz
