The revelations of the Holy Spirit are with us all, not just pope or bishops and what seems so crazy is the lack of attention payed to them by those who believe they have THE TRUTH.  The real problem is that us finite humans never come close to understanding the great mind of our God.  Those that believe in infallible truth are deluding themselves.  The Holy Spirit is contained in so many scientific and philosophical  writings that dogmatists fail to even read.  The Holy Spirit speaks to the genuine person no matter who that person is.  She speaks to whom ever she pleases.  Those that take the idea that only Bishops or Popes hear her are quite wrong.  She leaves ideas to genuine people not authoritarian demagogues.   So yes she speaks in long discourses or even short ones.
