Gossip, Destructive Talk

"A broken bone can heal, but the wound a word opens can fester forever." Jessamyn West

"Great minds discuss ideas.
Average minds discuss events.
Small minds discuss people."
        Eleanor Roosevelt

"Hateful to me as the gates of Hades is that man who hides one thing in his heart and speaks another." Homer

People who aren't pursuing their own dreams are usually the first to criticize people who are. On the Right Note, May 22, 2007
