Text Quotes
For only as we ourselves, as adults, actually move and have our being in the state of love, can we be appropriate models and guides for our children. What we are teaches the child far more than what we say, so we must be what we want our children to become  (What We Say Quotes) The people to whom we minister and speak will not recall 99 percent of what we say to them, but they will never forget the kind of persons we are  (What We Say Quotes) But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate - we can not consecrate - we can not hallow - this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here  (What We Say Quotes) Our aversion to lying is commonly a secret ambition to make what we say considerable, and have every word received with a religious respect  (What We Say Quotes) He that is in haste may contract much guilt in a little time. What we say or do unadvisedly when we are hot, we must unsay or undo again when we are cool, or do worse  (What We Say Quotes) There are four ways, and only four ways, in which we have contact with the world. We are evaluated and classified by these four contacts: what we do, how we look, what we say, and how we say it  (What We Say Quotes) What we say of a thing that has just come in fashion and that which we do with the dead, is the name of the honestest man in the nation: What more of a man can be said?  (What We Say Quotes) We, as artists, we have the right to express ourselves. That is our first amendment, freedom of speech. But I also believe that we have an obligation to the youth to be somewhat responsible in what we say on records. But I think that comes with age. I think that comes with artists growing up and becoming assured of who they are as people  (What We Say Quotes) Prepare your mind and heart before you prepare your speech. What we say may be less important than how we say it  (What We Say Quotes) Never run away with the idea that it doesn’t matter much what we believe or think; it does. What we believe and think, we are; not what we say we believe and think, but what we really do believe and think, we are; there is no divorce at all  (What We Say Quotes) If we all said to people’s faces what we say behind one another’s backs, society would be impossible  (What We Say Quotes) More than what we say or do, the way we are expresses what we think it means to be alive. So the articulate parent is less a telling than a listening individual  (What We Say Quotes) When we feel an obligation to test the things we say and to find the boundaries within which what we say has validity, then we are contributing to a real inner consolidation of our human feeling for existence  (What We Say Quotes) Genuine good taste consists in saying much in few words, in choosing among our thoughts, in having order and arrangement in what we say, and in speaking with composure  (What We Say Quotes) If people take any notice of what we say, we say we’ve been through the drug scene, man, and there’s nothing like being straight  (What We Say Quotes) For one word a man is often deemed to be wise, and for one word he is often deemed to be foolish. We should be careful indeed what we say  (What We Say Quotes) It means we’re looking one way, while following another. We’re for one side and also the other. We mean what we say, but our intentions are different  (What We Say Quotes) Because the rhythm of conversation makes no allowance for dead periods, because the presence of others calls for continuous responses, we are left to regret the inanity of what we say, and the missed opportunity of what we do not  (What We Say Quotes) The real test of compassion is not what we say in abstract discussions but how we conduct ourselves in daily life  (What We Say Quotes) The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here so nobly advanced  (What We Say Quotes) No matter what we say, entertainers are usually quite insecure, wobbly characters underneath, and maybe that bit of glory or that bit of expression or whatever it is compensates in some area  (What We Say Quotes) Angels can recognize the nature of our unique essence on the basis of nothing more than a brief conversation with us. From hearing the tone of our voice angels sense what we love; and from hearing what we say, angels sense our level of understanding  (What We Say Quotes) It isn’t the things that are happening to us that cause us to suffer, it’s what we say to ourselves about the things that are happening. The truth you believe and cling to makes you unavailable to hear anything new  (What We Say Quotes) It isn’t what happens to us that causes us to suffer; it’s what we say to ourselves about what happens  (What We Say Quotes) People learn from who we are, rather than what we say, and to believe otherwise is a disease of the mind  (What We Say Quotes) Not causing harm requires staying awake. Part of being awake is slowing down enough to notice what we say and do. The more we witness our emotional chain reactions and understand how they work, the easier it is to refrain. It becomes a way of life to stay awake, slow down, and notice  (What We Say Quotes) You want to make a difference in your world? Live a holy life: Be faithful to your spouse. Be the one at the office who refuses to cheat. Be the neighbor who acts neighbors. Be the employee who does the work and doesn’t complain. Pay your bills. Do your part and enjoy life. Don’t speak one message and live another. People are watching the way we act more than they are listening to what we say  (What We Say Quotes) The parent is the strongest statement that the child hears regarding what it means to be alive and real. More than what we say or do, the way we are expresses what we think it means to be alive. So the articulate parent is less a telling than a listening individual  (What We Say Quotes) What we say is that democracy means that you have the right to vote without intimidation and undue burdens. But if you stand in line for six hours, technically, today there is no document, no standard, no law that says that that’s wrong  (What We Say Quotes) I originally wanted to embrace the imagery and forthrightness of rap music. There are some interesting, dynamic voices in rap. But I find most of it irresponsible in its overt violence and commercialization of anger. As artists, we believe we can will action through language. If that’s the case, we have to take responsibility for what we say  (What We Say Quotes)
