No Ghost of any common sense begins a conversation

About This Quote

The idea that no one with common sense begins a conversation seems to be an old wives tale. Common sense is simply understood. The difference between common sense and not common sense is that one implies that something is obvious while the other implies that something is not obvious. If you ask someone, “Do you have common sense?” they would probably answer, “Yes, of course.”
