“Not only to say the right thing in the right place, but, far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.”

SALA

“The ordinary recreation of ordinary persons very much resolves itself into conversation with friends or casual acquaintance; and there can be no doubt that, by taking a little pains with it, directing it into interesting channels, and by unselfish efforts to make it vivacious, conversation may be made to brighten the mind very considerably, and to relieve the pressure of the burden of life.”

GOULBURN

“Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be always acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, my strength and my redeemer.”

Ps. xix. 14, 15
