Tongues Quotes

Talkers are no good doers; be assur'd we come to use our hands and not our tongues Picture Quote #1

Grief hath two tongues; and never woman yet could rule them both without ten women's wit Picture Quote #1

The tongues of mocking wenches are as keen as is the razor's edge invisible, cutting a smaller hair than may be seen; above the sense of sense, so sensible seemeth their conference, their conceits have wings fleeter than arrows, bullets, wind, thought, swifter things Picture Quote #1

There is the same difference between their tongues as between the hour and the minute hand; one goes ten times as fast, and the other signifies ten times as much Picture Quote #1

We have employments assigned to us for every circumstance in life. When we are alone, we have our thoughts to watch; in the family, our tempers; and in company, our tongues Picture Quote #1

That we would do We should do when we would, for this ‘would’ changes, and hath abatements and delays as many As there are tongues, are hands, are accidents, and then this ‘should’ is like a spendthrift sigh, that hurts by easing Picture Quote #1

True hearts have eyes and ears, no tongues to speak; They hear and see, and sigh, and then they break Picture Quote #1

We cannot control the evil tongues of others; but a good life enables us to disregard them Picture Quote #1

Language is a living thing. It must survive in men’s minds and on their tongues if it survives at all Picture Quote #1

Heaven hath many tongues to talk of it, more eyes to behold it, but few hearts that rightly affect it Picture Quote #1

I come from no country, from no city, no tribe. I am the son of the road... all tongues and all prayers belong to me. But I belong to none of them Picture Quote #1

They took away our land, our language, and our religion; but they could never harness our tongues Picture Quote #1

Why are we so attached to the severities of the past? Why are we so proud of having endured our fathers and our mothers, the fireless days and the meatless days, the cold winters and the sharp tongues? It’s not as if we had a choice Picture Quote #1

The neighbourhood is a place of... intrigue and emotional espionage, where when two people stop to talk on the street their tongues are like the two halves of a scissor coming together, cutting reputations and good names to shreds Picture Quote #1

Their tongues met, starving, two years without this delicious meal. They kissed and kissed and kissed. The joining of their mouths was more intense than that night on the ferry. This was a kiss of reunion. Of forgiveness. Of coming home Picture Quote #1

We view ourselves on the eve of battle. We are nerved for the contest, and must conquer or perish. It is vain to look for present aid: none is at hand. We must now act or abandon all hope! Rally to the standard, and be no longer the scoff of mercenary tongues! Be men, be free men, that your children may bless their father’s name Picture Quote #1

Angels are intelligent reflections of light, that original light which has no beginning. They can illuminate. They do not need tongues or ears, for they can communicate without speech, in thought Picture Quote #1

Every one in this world has as much as they can do in caring for themselves, and few have leisure really to think of their neighbours distresses, however they may delight their tongues with talking of them Picture Quote #1

We find that one of the most rewarding features of being scientists these days... is the common bond which the search for truth provides to scholars of many tongues and many heritages. In the long run, that spirit will inevitably have a constructive effect on the benefits which man can derive from knowledge of himself and his environment Picture Quote #1

Again the pressure pushes me in the chair, shuts my eyes. I notice the dark red tongues of the flame outside the windows. I’m trying to memorize, fix all the feelings, the peculiarities of this descending, to tell those, who will be conquering space after me Picture Quote #1

I was walking down the road with two friends when the sun set; suddenly, the sky turned as red as blood. I stopped and leaned against the fence, feeling unspeakably tired. Tongues of fire and blood stretched over the bluish black fjord. My friends went on walking, while I lagged behind, shivering with fear. Then I heard the enormous infinite scream of nature Picture Quote #1

If we could only make our hands move as actively as our tongues, what wonders we could accomplish! Almost everyone loves to hear his own voice. It is so easy, too! Yet if we could say less and do more for each other’s good, not alone would every home be happier, but communities would be enriched thereby. Instead of criticism by speech, to show someone a better way to do a thing would be of much greater value Picture Quote #1

It was only later that I suffocated under the weight of his arguments, and his darker thoughts articulated. It was only later that our tongues produced landslides, that we become caught in the cracks between what we said and what we meant, until we could not find each other, did not trust the words in our own mouths Picture Quote #1

When I’m 70 I might be a man in a park just wandering around, speaking in tongues with kids throwing bread at me Picture Quote #1

We hold our tongues in check because if they are undisciplined they empty the soul of the strength of heavenly grace, and weaken its healthful vigour Picture Quote #1

In outstanding classrooms, teachers do more listening than talking, and students do more talking than listening. Terrific teachers often have teeth marks on their tongues Picture Quote #1

Don’t destroy yourself by allowing negative people add gibberish and debris to your character, reputation, and aspirations. Keep all dreams alive but discreet, so that those with unhealthy tongues won’t have any other option than to infest themselves with their own diseases Picture Quote #1

Being assertive in the home does not produce any smiling faces, but it does bring out a few tongues Picture Quote #1

Men. One minute they have their tongues down your throat and the next they’re forbidding you from meeting your own father and criticizing your fashion choices Picture Quote #1

There are only two sorts of doctors; those who practise with their brains, and those who practise with their tongues Picture Quote #1
