The object of a dialogue is not to analyze things, or to win an argument, or to exchange opinions. Rather, it is to suspend your opinions and to look at the opinions — to listen to everybody’s opinion, to suspend them, and to see what it all means. Each person is participating, is partaking of the whole meaning of the group and also taking part in it. We can call that a true dialogue.

-David Bohm, On Dialogue, 1996
