Tongue Quotes

Oh, you’ve outdone me twice now, you queen of forgiveness. The ring’s a promise of peace and I’m greedy with hope. It’s a song that we sing in a tongue that we share. And though you say it’s a gift from a king to a king, I say it’s a sign from a queen to a queen Picture Quote #1

Just for a few tiny buds on your tongue you are killing live animals, with no sensitivity, with no awareness, with no love. It seems impossible; how can a man who has known love be capable of doing such things? A man who loves his wife, who loves his children goes on eating meat? Impossible Picture Quote #1

Through seven figures come sensations for a man; there is hearing for sounds, sight for the visible, nostril for smell, tongue for pleasant or unpleasant tastes, mouth for speech, body for touch, passages outwards and inwards for hot or cold breath. Through these come knowledge or lack of it Picture Quote #1

I should like to sleep like a cat, with all the fur of time, with a tongue rough as flint, with the dry sex of fire; and after speaking to no one, stretch myself over the world, over roofs and landscapes, with a passionate desire to hunt the rats in my dreams Picture Quote #1

People cleave to their worldly possessions and selfish passions so blindly as to sacrifice their own lives for them. They are like a child who tries to eat a little, honey smeared on the edge of a knife. The amount is by no means sufficient to appease his appetite, but he runs the risk of wounding his tongue Picture Quote #1

And is it not true that in like manner a leader of the people who, getting control of a docile mob, does not withhold his hand from the shedding of tribal blood, but by the customary unjust accusations brings a citizen into court and assassinates him, blotting out a human life, and with unhallowed tongue and lips that have tasted kindred blood, banishes and slays and hints at the abolition of debts and the partition of lands Picture Quote #1

He who permits himself to tell a lie once, finds it much easier to do it a second and third time, till at length it becomes habitual; he tells lies without attending to it, and truths without the world’s believing him. This falsehood of the tongue leads to that of the heart, and in time depraves all its good dispositions Picture Quote #1

Listen much, keep silent when in doubt, and always take heed of the tongue; thou wilt make few mistakes. See much, beware of pitfalls, and always give heed to thy walk; thou wilt have little to rue. If thy words are seldom wrong, thy deeds leave little to rue, pay will follow Picture Quote #1

The whiskey warmed his tongue and the back of his throat, but it did not change his ideas any, and suddenly, looking at himself in the mirror behind the bar, he knew that drinking was never going to do any good to him now. Whatever he had now he had, and it was from now on, and if he drank himself unconscious when he woke up it would be there Picture Quote #1

Leave. Roll the world around on your tongue for a bit. It is a beautiful world, isn’t it? So strong and forceful, the way you have always wanted to be. And you will not be alone. You have never been alone. Don’t worry. Everything will still be here when you get back. It is you who will have changed Picture Quote #1

There is a silence, the child of love, which expresses everything, and proclaims more loudly than the tongue is able to do; there are movements that are involuntary proofs of what the soul feels Picture Quote #1

It is a sign that your reputation is small and sinking if your own tongue must praise you Picture Quote #1

I am the one who has felt most deeply the stuttering of the tongue in its relation to thought Picture Quote #1

Do not let habit, born from experience, force you along this road, directing aimless eye and echoing ear and tongue; but judge by reason the much contested proof which I have spoken Picture Quote #1

Be a craftsman in speech that thou mayest be strong, for the strength of one is the tongue, and speech is mightier than all fighting Picture Quote #1

He who has the truth at his heart need never fear the want of persuasion on his tongue Picture Quote #1

I’d managed to bite a very large hole in the side of my tongue before they could pry my teeth apart. By all evidence, and there’s no denying it, that thing I had on the set was a fit Picture Quote #1

Now everything is clear. I admit my defeat. The tongue of my ravings in my ear is the tongue of a stranger Picture Quote #1

It seemed as if my tongue pronounced words without my will consenting to their utterance: something spoke out of me over which I had no control Picture Quote #1

Of the bare field, by the enemy’s beak gouged till the craters of my eyes gape, I am grief, I am the tongue of war, the embers of cities on the snows of the year 1941 I am hunger Picture Quote #1

I see that everywhere among the race of men it is the tongue that wins and not the deed Picture Quote #1

Nature, which gave us two eyes to see, and two ears to hear, has given us but one tongue to speak Picture Quote #1

She was a woman of haughty and fierce carriage, a nimble wit and active spirit, a very voluble tongue, more bold than a man Picture Quote #1
