Words spoken cannot be recalled so think twice before you speak.

Words build bridges into unexplored regions.

There are tones of voices that mean more than words.

Man has much power of discourse which for the most part is vain and false; animals have but little, but it is useful and true, and a small truth is better than a great lie.

Understanding is the heartwood of well-spoken words.

Conversation should be pleasant without scurrility, witty without affectation, free without indecency, learned without conceitedness, novel without falsehood.
