Not a word passes between us, not because we have nothing to say, but because we don’t have to say anything.
The less you say, the better it will be.[translation by Peter Anthony Motteux]
Talk low, talk slow and don’t say too much.
Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter, and those who matter don’t mind.
Тhere are people who never say anything but what is clever and good, yet one feels that they are dull-witted people.[Бывают люди, которые всегда говорят только умные и хорошие слова, но чувствуешь, что они тупые люди.]
Wise men say nothing in dangerous times.
Why do we embroider everything we say with special emphasis when all we really need to do is simply say what needs to he said? Of course the fact is that there is very little that needs to be said.
When people say clearly something, that means there’s a huge crack in their argument and they know things aren’t clear at all.
There is a war between the ones who say there is a war and the ones who say there isn’t.
The reason you will not say it is, when you say it, even to yourself, you will know it is true.
The only saving grace of the present is that it’s too damned stupid to question the past very closely.
The important thing is not whatever nonsense the voices are saying, but what the voices are feeling.
