"A man cannot speak but he judges himself.……" — Ralph Waldo Emerson

"A man cannot speak but he judges himself. With his will or against his will he draws his portrait to the eye of his companions by every word. Every opinion reacts on him who utters it. It is a threadball thrown at a mark, but the other end remains on the thrower"

Ralph Waldo Emerson
