Don't talk to me about a man's being able to talk sense; everyone can talk sense. Can he talk nonsense?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It's difficult to describe the weirdness of speaking to a man who appears to be perfectly in control of his faculties, who can deliver off-the-cuff repartee, and yet who is actually utterly disconnected from who he is.
He who talks much cannot talk well.
We have for too long been taught that the sight of a man speaking to himself is a sign of eccentricity or madness; we are no longer at all habituated to our own voices, except in conversation or from within the safety of a shouting crowd.
A man speaks only when driven to speech by something outside himself - like, for instance, he can't find any clean socks.
A man thinks that by mouthing hard words he understands hard things.
A man does not know what he is saying until he knows what he is not saying.
I don't think men talk as much as women, but when we have something on our minds we'll get it out.
God is a spirit and converses with us in a quiet atmosphere because our minds are not capable of listening to his voice when they are filled with noise and confusion.
If a person feels he can't communicate, the least he can do is shut up about it.
If a man has common sense, he has all the sense there is.
