If we can only speak to slander our betters, let us hold our tongues.
--
Gilbert to Eliza (Ch. IX : A Snake in the Grass)Anne Bronte
It is a sad thing when men have neither the wit to speak well, nor the judgment to hold their tongues.
Jean de La Bruyere
Do you speak Scorn and Mockery to everyone? Or just to your betters?
Orson Scott Card
Money, once again; all is money. All human relationships must be purchased with money. If you have no money, men won't care for you, women won't love you; won't, that is, care for you or love you the last little bit that matters. And how right they are, after all! For, moneyless, you are unlovable. Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels. But then, if I haven't money, I DON'T speak with the tongues of men and of angels.
George Orwell
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels and yet had no love I were even as the sounding brass or as a tinkling cymbal.
William Tyndale
Do you know why teachers use me? Because I speak in tongues. I write metaphors. Every one of my stories is a metaphor you can remember.
Ray Bradbury
