Words have power, my son. Words can cut to the heart and soothe the deepest hurts. They can be puzzles that leave another pondering for days. I prefer to cast my spells of words in ways that make others think. It is a fault, I fear, that has come with age. Cheryl Matthynssens
About This Quote

The first words that came to mind when I first heard this quote were the first words of the speech given by Winston Churchill, “We must be merciless toward our enemies, but even more so toward our friends.” The power of words is something that everyone should keep in mind. If you are upset with someone, do not take it out on them. Instead, find a way to express yourself without being hurtful. This is an important lesson to learn as you grow older.
