Be sure your wisest words are those you do not say.

You can tell more about a person by what he says about others than you can by what others say about him.

If you find something to tell, tell it to your truest, though that make little to tell; the truer you speak, the more you will know to tell.

It's so simple to be wise. Just think of something stupid to say and say the opposite.

Be wiser than other people if you can, but do not tell them so.

There are some things that, if you say them out loud, will hurt the other person's feelings. I tend to say them anyway. It's better to be honest.

I'm actually a very honest person, and sometimes I end up like, 'Man, I said too much.' It's hard for me not to tell the truth when you ask me.

There are many things in your heart you can never tell to another person. They are you, your private joys and sorrows, and you can never tell them. You cheapen yourself, the inside of yourself, when you tell them.

You can't be too careful what you tell a child because you never know what he'll take hold of and spend the rest of his life remembering you by.

There are so many things about which some old man ought to tell one while one is little; for when one is grown one would know them as a matter of course.
