Thoughts and words

.

A truly wise person uses few words; a person with understanding is even-tempered. 

--Proverbs 17:27 



Look at the word blame. It's just a coincidence that the last two words spell the word me. But that coincidence is worth thinking about. 

--Arthur Freeman 



I will be free, even to the uttermost, as I please, in words. 

--William Shakespeare The Taming of the Shrew. 



Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless. 

--Mother Teresa 



Kind words do not cost much. They never blister the tongue or lips. They make other people good-natured. They also produce their own image on men's souls, and a beautiful image it is. 


--Blaise Pascal (1623-1662) 



The Gettysburg Address has 272 words. A bag of Lay's potato chips has 401 words. 


--Unknown 



Many wise words are spoken in jest, but they don't compare with the number of stupid words spoken in earnest. 

--Sam Levenson (1911 - 1980) Humorist
