This section takes its name from NL Clay’s first book, Think and Speak, published in 1929. The exercises you will find here are similar to those Clay gave in this book and in later publications. They are intended to build self-confidence, free the imagination, and spark an interest in the power of words.
“Please come to this lesson bursting with impatience. Has nothing happened to make you smile? If you travel by train, bus or tram, if you visit the baths, if you walk through the streets, you should have abundant material. There can be little excuse for not having observed one thing.”
