The Destructive Power of Words

“WORDS, WORDS, WORDS!” says Hamlet, disparagingly. But God preserve us from the destructive power of words! There are words which can separate hearts sooner than sharp swords; there are words whose sting can remain in the heart through a whole life. Therefore think always before you speak, and speak in love or be silent.
