Dirty Quote by Thomas De Witt Talmage
“Take not into your ear that scum of hell that people call tittle-tattle. Whosoever willingly listens to a slander is equally guilty with the one who tells it, and an old writer says they ought both to be hanged; the one by the tongue and the other by the ear. Do not smile upon such a spaniel, lest like a pleased dog, he puts his dirty paw upon you.”
![“Tattletales, and those who listen to their slander, by my good will, should all be hanged. The former by their tongues, the latter by their ears. [Lat., Homines qui gestant, quique auscultant crimina, si meo arbitratu liceat, omnes pendeant gestores linguis, auditores auribus.]” quote by Plautus](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/1f9/plautus-1263_ears_tattletales-and-those-who-listen-to-thei_896864.jpg)
