Robert Caro, who has spent the past 37 years, writing his multi-volume biography of Lyndon Johnson, tells Dave Davies about how Johnson was a “great reader of men”:
When a new aide, a young aide [arrived] … he’d tell them how to talk to someone. He’d say, ‘Watch their eyes. Watch their hands. What they’re telling you with their eyes or their hands is more important than what they’re telling you with their mouth.’ He used to say, ‘Never let a conversation end because there’s always something that the man doesn’t want to tell you and the longer a conversation goes on, the easier it is for you to figure out what it is he doesn’t want to tell you.’ He had a unique ability to know what a man really wanted, what a man really was afraid of and of playing on those fears and those desires.”

Some of the best frames I’ve seen done in a while.
Our first eyeglasses. Done with Lee Allen. Will be offering frames with sun protection as well.
On that Lanvin suit and tie. Is your Boss this Fresh? #metgala #pharrell #pharrellwilliams #lanvin #Bawse #styleicon #BillionaireLife

Won’t you please let me go
These words lie inside they hurt me so
And I’m not the kind that likes to tell you
Just what I want to do
I’m not the kind that needs to tell you
Just what you want me to
I saw you this morning
I thought that you might like to know
I received your message
And in a few days ago
I understood every word that it said
And now that I’ve actually heard it
You’re going to regret
And I’m not the kind that likes to tell you
Just what you want me to
You’re not the kind that needs to tell me
About the birds and the bees
Do you find this happens all the time
Crucial point one day becomes a crime
And I’m not the kind that likes to tell you
Just what I want to do
I’m not the kind that needs to tell you
I’ve lost you (x5)
I’ve lost you (x5)
I’ve lost you (x5)
