Never rush an emotion; everything in life has a rhythm, it is the pauses and silences that speak the truth.

Truth is the offspring of silence and meditation. I keep the subject constantly before me and wait 'til the first dawnings open slowly, by little and little, into a full and clear light.

The truth hurts, but silence kills.

Many people, especially ignorant people, want to punish you for speaking the truth, for being correct, for being you. Never apologize for being correct, or for being years ahead of your time. If you're right and you know it, speak your mind. Speak your mind. Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is still the truth.

Speak only if it improves upon the silence.

This is preeminently the time to speak the truth, the whole truth, frankly and boldly.
