daily does of quotable quotes

There is more hope for a stupid fool than for someone who speaks without thinking.
- Proverbs 29:20

A fool is a fool. But who could have imagined that a fool has more hope than these people? For the people who use hasty words, it is because they have very small chance of salvaging their hasty words. Hasty words once spoken cannot be taken back. They do their mischief and no amount of apologies, excuses and explanations would be able to undo the damage they had done. Hasty words betray a heart that has little self-control.

Like arrows from a bow, words once spoken cannot be recalled. Apologies sometimes don’t make up for the hurt caused by hasty words. Hasty words cheat the mind, betray the heart and ruin a life. There is but one cure for hasty words---always take your time before you respond.
