“Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these, 'It might have been.”
“The pen is mightier than the sword, but the tongue is mightier than them both put together.”
“If, of all words of tongue and pen,The saddest are, 'It might have been,'More sad are these we daily see:'It is, but hadn't ought to be.”
