I recently recalled a brief dialogue in the movie The painted veil, from 2006, with Edward Norton and Naomi Watts. It goes on like this:
Kitty Fane: It's raining cats and dogs.
Kitty Fane: I said it's raining cats and dogs.
Walter Fane: Yes, I heard you.
Kitty Fane: You might have answered.
Walter Fane: I suppose I'm not used to speaking unless I've something to say.
Kitty Fane: If people only spoke when they had something to say, the human race would soon lose the power of speech.
Does it happen to you that you speak only when you have something to say? I feel so identified with the character of Dr. Fane on that matter...
