May everyone speak a blessing to you, darling! Have a positive thought and a positive morning!

She doesn’t speak. She hasn’t said a word since right after she started middle school. Not a word. And from what Hatori says, the problem is all in her mind. He said, for some reason, she’s locked away all of her words. After she stopped talking, she stopped going to school. And then today, she ran away from home. That’s why I went out looking for her. By the time I found her, she had transformed into a tiger.

Oh, and.. I would advice you never to speak your names while you’re in this house, for your safety.

One more word Shigure and the entire publishing industry will know every embarrassing thing you’ve done since you were four.

I’m not a follower. I’m a leader. And anyone who speaks their mind is always criticised.

Look into my heart and feel what I am saying, for my heart speaks the truth and the truth is I love you.

Speak quietly to yourself and promise there will be better days. Whisper gently to yourself and provide assurance that you really are extending your best effort. Console your bruised and tender spirit with reminders of many other successes. Offer comfort in practical and tangible ways – as if you were encouraging your dearest friend.
Recognize that on certain days the greatest grace is that the day is over and you get to close your eyes. Tomorrow comes more brightly.

“What did you say?” I asked, walking to her, putting my hand on the small of her back.
“Shhhh,” she said. “I’m sleeping.”

I opened my mouth again but this time not to speak, and she reached up and put a finger to my lips and said, “Shh. Shh. Don’t ruin it.”

Keep only those things that speak to your heart. Then take the plunge and discard all the rest. By doing this, you can reset your life and embark on a new lifestyle.

As for me, the silence and the emptiness is so great, that I look and do not see, — Listen and do not hear — the tongue moves but does not speak … I want you to pray for me — that I let Him have free hand.

Move thy tongue, for silence is a sign of discontent.

I’m afraid to speak or move for fear that all this wonderful beauty will just vanish … like a broken silence.

Open your mouth only if what you are going to say is more beautiful than the silence.

Comment dis-tu ‘Oh my God, I don’t know nearly enough French to pass French II’ en français?

Still, it’s kind of strange that we’ve never spoken before, even though we’re related. But even on the “outside” you’re well-known for being handsome, Hatori-san.

From time to time I’ve spoken to school groups about my work at NASA. I’ve also been active in my church and my sorority [Alpha Kappa Alpha]. I like to play bridge and other games that involve math.

I felt like there was something I needed to do – speaking to kids and sharing my story with them and helping them understand racism has no place in the minds and hearts of children.

An Englishman’s way of speaking absolutely classifies him.

I speak hair. English is my second language.

And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.

“I can’t get him to speak!” Michael whispered miserably. “It’s just a tantrum,” Sophie said. Martha and Lettie were good at having tantrums too. She knew how to deal with those. On the other hand, it is quite a risk to spank a wizard for getting hysterical about his hair.

Speak and live in simple sentences. Bring closure — put a period to — those experiences that you don’t want to carry on forever and ever. Use commas in those places where you’re still growing… and use exclamation points at the end of every lesson.

If you’re not speaking your own truth, you will never be able to be all you are meant to be. You cannot be pretending to be somebody else.

We are articulate, but we are not particularly conversational. An Englishman won’t talk for the sake of talking. He doesn’t mind silence. But after the silence, he sometimes says something.
