Text Quotes
The law of silence: Speak little. Say only what you must. Speak only when necessary. Your oratory should be deeds, not words. You accomplish: let others talk  (Speak Quotes) You learn to speak by speaking, to study by studying, to run by running, to work by working; and just so, you learn to love by loving. All those who think to learn in any other way deceive themselves  (Speak Quotes) We speak of concrete and not abstract painting because nothing is more concrete, more real than a line, a color, a surface  (Speak Quotes) To speak from a particular place and time is not provincialism but part of a writer’s identity  (Speak Quotes) Quantum theory provides us with a striking illustration of the fact that we can fully understand a connection though we can only speak of it in images and parables  (Speak Quotes) Letters are signs of things, symbols of words, whose power is so great that without a voice they speak to us the words of the absent; for they introduce words by the eye, not by the ear  (Speak Quotes) To make the material speak to man in the name of man, this is the aim and reality of art  (Speak Quotes) Language the most forcible proceeds from the man who is most sincere. The way to speak with power, or to write words that pierce mankind to the quick, is to speak and write honestly  (Speak Quotes) The instant of birth is exquisite. Pain and joy are one at this moment. Ever after, the dim recollection is so sweet that we speak to our children with a gratitude they never understand  (Speak Quotes) The task of asking nonliving matter to speak and the responsibility for interpreting its reply is that of physics  (Speak Quotes) No one is moved to act, or resolves to speak a single word, who does not hope by means of this action or word to release anxiety from his spirit  (Speak Quotes) Never speak of yourself to others; make them talk about themselves instead; therein lies the whole art of pleasing. Everybody knows it, and everyone forgets it  (Speak Quotes) When we know exactly all a man’s views and how he comes to speak and act so and so, we lose any respect for him, though we may love and admire him  (Speak Quotes) Freedom of speech means that you shall not do something to people either for the views they have, or the views they express, or the words they speak or write  (Speak Quotes) It is easier to accept the message of the stars than the message of the salt desert. The stars speak of man’s insignificance in the long eternity of time; the desert speaks of his insignificance right now  (Speak Quotes) By diminishing the value of silence, publicity has also diminished that of language. The two are inseparable: knowing how to speak has always meant knowing how to keep silent, knowing that there are times when one should say nothing  (Speak Quotes) Some people mistake weakness for tact. If they are silent when they ought to speak and so feign an agreement they do not feel, they call it being tactful. Cowardice would be a much better name. Tact is an active quality t hat is not exercised by merely making a dash for cover. Be sure, when you think you are being extremely tactful, that you are not in reality running away from something you ought to face  (Speak Quotes) If you would understand your own age, read the works of fiction produced in it. People in disguise speak freely  (Speak Quotes) The only way to make sure people you agree with can speak is to support the rights of people you don’t agree with  (Speak Quotes) I have only to speak for myself; to speak for freedom for myself; to determine for freedom for myself; and in doing so, I speak and determine for the freedom of every slave on every plantation, and for the fugitives on my right hand  (Speak Quotes) It often happens that those of whom we speak least on earth are best known in heaven  (Speak Quotes) Mourn not the dead that in the cool earth lie, but rather mourn the apathetic, throng the coward and the meek who see the world’s great anguish and its wrong, and dare not speak  (Speak Quotes) One of the great reasons for the popularity of strikes is that they give the suppressed self a sense of power. For once the human tool knows itself a man, able to stand up and speak a word or strike a blow  (Speak Quotes) Insight, I believe, refers to the depth of understanding that comes by setting experiences, yours and mine, familiar and exotic, new and old, side by side, learning by letting them speak to one another  (Speak Quotes) Mediocre people have an answer for everything and are astonished at nothing. They always want to have the air of knowing better than you what you are going to tell them; when, in their turn, they begin to speak, they repeat to you with the greatest confidence, as if dealing with their own property, the things that they have heard you say yourself at some other place. A capable and superior look is the natural accompaniment of this type of character  (Speak Quotes) The difficulties in the study of the infinite arise because we attempt, with our finite minds, to discuss the infinite, assigning to it those properties which we give to the finite and limited; but this... is wrong, for we cannot speak of infinite quantities as being the one greater or less than or equal to another  (Speak Quotes) I shall speak of how melancholy and utopia preclude one another. How they fertilize one another... of the revulsion that follows one insight and precedes the next... of superabundance and surfeit. Of stasis in progress. And of myself, for whom melancholy and utopia are heads and tails of the same coin  (Speak Quotes) One of the reasons it has seemed so difficult for a person to change his habits, his personality, or his way of life, has been that heretofore nearly all efforts at change have been directed to the circumference of the self, so to speak, rather than to the center  (Speak Quotes) Experiment is necessary in establishing an academy, but certain principles must apply to this business of art as to any other business which affects the artistic tic sense of the community. Great art speaks a language which every intelligent person can understand. The people who call themselves modernists today speak a different language  (Speak Quotes) I pray without ceasing now. My personal prayer is: Make me an instrument which only truth can speak  (Speak Quotes)
