Shy and unready men are great betrayers of secrets; for there are few wants more urgent for the moment than the want of something to say.

Our Lord God shewed two manner of secret things. One is this great Secret with all the privy points that belong thereto: and these secret things He willeth we should know hid until the time that He will clearly shew them to us. The other are the secret things that He willeth to make open and known to us; for He would have us understand that it is His will that we should know them. They are secrets to us not only for that He willeth that they be secrets to us, but they are secrets to us for our blindness and our ignorance; and thereof He hath great ruth, and therefore He will Himself make them more open to us, whereby we may know Him and love Him and cleave to Him. For all that is speedful for us to learn and to know, full courteously will our Lord shew us.

 
Julian of Norwich
 

I shall grasp the soul's skirt with my hand
and stamp on the world's head with my foot.
I shall trample Matter and Space with my horse,
beyond all Being I shall utter a great shout,
and in that moment when I shall be alone with Him,
I shall whisper secrets to all mankind.
Since I have neither sign nor name
I shall speak only of things unnamed and without sign.

 
Attar
 

All secrets are deep. All secrets become dark. That's in the nature of secrets.

 
Cory Doctorow
 

Women have ever been the stumbling block and betrayers of ambition.

 
Arthur Desmond
 

The deepest circle of hell is reserved for betrayers and mutineers.
