Lailah Gifty AkitaThe mouth speaks from well spring of the heart.
About This Quote
The heart is the wellspring of the mind and soul. It is the beginning of all communication. The mouth, in turn, speaks from the heart, because it mirrors what is in the heart. Therefore, when people use their mouths to speak maliciously about others, they are actually speaking from their own hearts. They are speaking from what they think should be said or should have been said to make them feel better about themselves.
