Good talk saves the food Gossips are frogs, they drink and talk. He who knows does not speak. He who speaks does not know.

Speak softly and carry a big stick Speak when you are spoken to Talk about things of tomorrow and the mice inside the ceiling laugh Talk is cheap Talk of the devil - and the devil appears. Talk of the devil and he will appear. Talk of the Devil, and he is bound to appear Talking comes by nature, silence by wisdom. The eyes speak as much as the mouth Think before you speak Think Much, Speak Little and Write Less Too funny for words Use soft words and hard arguments What you eat today walks and talks tomorrow.
