Henry David ThoreauLanguage is an intrinsic part of who we are and what has, for good or evil, happened to us.
Alice WalkerI’m blessed to have such a tight-knit family that we can talk about anything. Whether we talk frequently or not, since we’re on separate ends of the country, there are a lot of moving parts, and we always stay tight and find that center ground that keeps us together.
Stephen CurryI write all of my own speeches.
Greta ThunbergHe that would live in peace and at ease must not speak all he knows or all he sees.
Benjamin FranklinLet us make a special effort to stop communicating with each other, so we can have some conversation.
Mark TwainYou could imagine a language exactly like English except it doesn’t have connectives like ‚and‘ that allow you to make longer expressions. An infant learning truncated English would have no idea about this: They would just pick it up as they would standard English.
Noam ChomskyI exaggerate when I’m angry, but I’ve never gone around telling people things that aren’t true about me.
Joe BidenIf we accept being talked to any kind of a way, then we are telling ourselves we are not quite worth the best. And if we have the effrontery to talk to anybody with less than courtesy, we tell ourselves and the world we are not very intelligent.
Maya Angelou‚This guy’s a clown! He’s just all talk!‘ I’ve heard that many times in my career. And then they’re sleeping in the middle of the octagon.
Conor McGregorLying is not only saying what isn’t true. It is also, in fact especially, saying more than is true and, in the case of the human heart, saying more than one feels. We all do it, every day, to make life simpler.
Albert CamusWe are tired of aristocratic explanations in Harvard words.
Dwight D. EisenhowerA friend should be a master at guessing and keeping still: you must not want to see everything.

Jocko WillinkUsing e-mail, I can communicate with scientists all over the world.
Stephen HawkingI live half the year on Necker, a tiny island in the Caribbean, and it’s always full of people in party mode. Everyone comes up to the big house, and we’ll be dancing until the early hours to the island’s band, the Front Line.
Richard BransonThe kids never listen to you, especially the youngest ones.
Jackie ChanI wash my hands of those who imagine chattering to be knowledge, silence to be ignorance, and affection to be art.

David BowieI try to speak in a way that people can understand.
John KennedyIf you’re talking to a man who wouldn’t fight with you under any circumstances whatsoever, then you’re talking to someone for whom you have absolutely no respect.
Jordan PetersonI really miss being able to blend in with people.
Kurt CobainYou learn a lot about someone when you share a meal together.
Anthony BourdainOne often contradicts an opinion when what is uncongenial is really the tone in which it was conveyed.
Friedrich NietzscheI’ll think I have a few wonderful friends and all of a sudden, ooh, here it comes. They do a lot of things. They talk about you to the press, to their friends, tell stories, and you know, it’s disappointing.
Marilyn MonroeI used to stutter really badly. Everybody thinks it’s funny. And it’s not funny. It’s not.
Joe BidenKnowledge can be communicated, but not wisdom. One can find it, live it, be fortified by it, do wonders through it, but one cannot communicate and teach it.
Hermann HesseI could talk all day, T stands for talking, T stands for tender, T stands for things that don’t even rhyme with T.
Mr. TThe American public’s a lot more sophisticated than we all give them credit for. And on complicated issues, I’m going to give them straight answers. And if it takes more than three minutes, I’m going to do it.
Joe BidenMuch unhappiness has come into the world because of bewilderment and things left unsaid.
Fyodor DostoevskySilence speaks so much louder than screaming tantrums. Never give anyone an excuse to say that you’re crazy.
Taylor SwiftI had to resign myself, many years ago, that I’m not too articulate when it comes to explaining how I feel about things. But my music does it for me, it really does.

Albert CamusYou can only have one aim per debate.

Samuel JohnsonWe are masters of the unsaid words, but slaves of those we let slip out.
Winston ChurchillIn the early days of the military Arpanet, my daughter was studying in Nicaragua. Because the U.S. was essentially at war with them, contact was difficult. I managed to use MIT’s Arpanet connection, and she found one, so we could communicate thanks to the Pentagon!
Noam ChomskyWhen I talk to kids, I’m really listening. When I do that, we have a little bit of a bigger connection than me being Kendrick Lamar and you being a student. It’s almost like we’re friends. Because a friend listens.
Kendrick LamarI have my own vocabulary. I love linguistics. That surprises people.
Matthew McConaugheyWhen I am getting ready to reason with a man, I spend one-third of my time thinking about myself and what I am going to say and two-thirds about him and what he is going to say.
Abraham LincolnPeople who know little are usually great talkers, while men who know much say little.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
