About This Quote

The phrase "The words you do not speak are as important to the impact you make on other people as the words you do not speak" was written by Tom Too Tall Cunningham (Thomas J. Cunningham) in his book, “The Words You Do Not Speak.” He says that the words we don't say or write can be just as important as what we say or write. He gives an example of how language can shape our reality. "For example, when I was younger, I remember I didn't like my name.

So, I tried to come up with a new one. In my mind, I thought of a name that was acceptable and loved it. Then I set out to find that name.

It took me two years to find it because no one believed me that there were no such names." He then goes on to give many examples of how people use the power of language in a negative way and how they use it positively. If we use our words in a positive way, we can have a positive impact on others and the world around us will be a better place for it.
