If your lip would keep from slips.
Five things observe with care:
To whom you speak, of whom you speak,
And how, and when, and where.William E. Norris

That is short, sweet, precise and how very true :)
A few choice words that convey a whole lot of truth. The tongue can be sharper than any sword, and cause lots of damage on many levels, so thinking before speaking is truly a desirable character trait.
A very little poem, but William E. Norris is well known I believe in the UK. Taught in school etc. I suppose its to the point!
I really get angry when people star speaking about the others no one is really so good to be speaking of others all of us have good things and bad things so just for that we should not be able to speak about others and is something that tells a lot of the people that do they dont have nothing to do with his life. I really dont have time to speak of others I work, lift weights, play soccer, and when I dont have nothing to do I play playstation or hang around with my friends; but speak of others is not one of my favorites hobbies and no one should have it as an hobbie
Try to, for the MOST part, only say stuff about people that you wouldn’t be afraid to say to their face! (It could get back around to them! Who knows?)
