"I have often repented of speech but..." - Quote by C S Lewis

“A man can't be always defending the truth; there must be a time to feed on it.”

“Where I come from, they don't think much of men who are bossed about by their wives.”

“The death of a beloved is an amputation.”

“The quiet was so deep that their feet seemed to thump along while all the trees leaned over them and listened.”

“it is not wise to keep the fire going under a slander unless you can get some large advantage out of keeping it alive. Few slanders can stand the wear of silence.”

“There are some things which a man never speaks of, which are much finer kept silent about. To the highest communications we only lend a silent ear.”

“Speaking is a beautiful folly; with that man dances over all things.”

“No one knows who is listening, say nothing you would not wish put in the newspapers.”

“This fellow pecks up wit, as pigeons peas; And utters it again when God doth please: He is wit's pedler; and retails his wares.”
