“She shouldn't speak her thoughts; nothing good ever came of speaking your thoughts.”

“Clearly she was expected to say something, but panic at having to speak stole the thoughts from her head.”

“As Lacy waited for her turn to speak on Peter's behalf, she thought back to the first time she realized she could hate her own child.”

“If she could've found the will power to speak, the brain cells to construct thought, she would've told Clay he was a god. It was a good thing she was too wiped out or he would never let her forget it”

“Think all you speak, but speak not all you think. Thoughts are your own; your words are so no more.”

“All that we are is the result of what we have thought: it is founded on our thoughts and made up of our thoughts. If a man speak or act with an evil thought, suffering follows him as the wheel follows the hoof of the beast that draws the wagon.... If a man speak or act with a good thought, happiness follows him like a shadow that never leaves him.”
