“Done to death by slanderous tongue”
“If we can only speak to slander our betters, let us hold our tongues.”
“Upon my tongues continual slanders ride,The which in every language I pronounce,Stuffing the ears of men with false reports.”
“Someone must have slandered Josef K., for one morning, without having done anything truly wrong, he was arrested.”
“In crime and enmity they lie Who sin and tell us love can die, Who say to us in slander's breath That love belongs to sin and death.”
“A tongue, if used the wrong way, can cause serious injury or even death. Politicians are famous for misusing their tongues this way. However, tongues can also be cleansing agents, making the most of a hairy situation. Cats are masters at using their tongues in this manner.”
