“it is not enough to speak, but to speak true”
“There is a way that nature speaks, that land speaks. Most of the time we are simply not patient enough, quiet enough, to pay attention to the story.”
“I wish that all those, who on this night are not merry enough to speak before they think, may ever after be grave enough to think before they speak!”
“On their deathbed men will speak true, they say.”
“I cannot speak well enough to be unintelligible.”
“Those who speak most of health, have it. Those who speak most of wealth, have it. Those who speak most of joy, have it. The opposite also holds true. So which would you rather have?”
