Sometimes listening is of greater value than speaking.

There is a difference between listening and waiting for your turn to speak.

The real being of language is that into which we are taken up when we hear it - what is said.

Like, even when I speak, I think I speak the same way I write. I kind of see it a certain way, and it leads me to write it exactly how I'm seeing it.

The first time you say something, it's heard. The second time, it's recognized, and the third time it's learned.

If you are given only one opportunity to speak, be certain your voice is heard.

When you have a voice, and you have an opportunity at the world level to be able to speak, it has to be right.

Speak properly, and in as few words as you can, but always plainly; for the end of speech is not ostentation, but to be understood.

I think it's interesting to speak when you have something to say.
