How to be happy: Ignore people who think they know more about you than you do.
I despise people who go to the gutter on either the right or the left and hurl rocks at those in the center.
I guess rumors are more exciting than the truth.
I have Social Disease. I have to go out every night. If I stay home one night I start spreading rumors to my dogs.
If you can’t say anything nice, then don’t say anything at all.
If you cannot be positive, then at least be quiet.
If you gossip – you need to hush. Now. If you listen to gossip – you need to stop. Now. If you are a victim of gossip – you need to become a victor. Now.
If you haven’t got anything nice to say about anybody come sit next to me.
If you must slander someone don’t speak it – but write it – write it in the sand, near the water’s edge!
Rumor travels faster, but it don’t stay put as long as truth.
If you reveal your secrets to the wind, you should not blame the wind for revealing them to the trees.
If you’re horrible to me, I’m going to write a song about it, and you won’t like it. That’s how I operate.
If your foot slips, you may recover your balance, but if your tongue slips, you cannot recall your words.
People who judge harshly, criticize and condemn others through gossip, rumor or bad word of mouth are setting themselves up for the same unfair trials.
People who love themselves, don’t hurt other people. The more we hate ourselves, the more we want others to suffer.
People will question all the good things they hear about you but believe all the bad without a second thought.
Perhaps even more than broken bones, words can hurt forever.
Perhaps you haven’t been accused, exactly, but you have struggled with gossip which has made you look bad. These situations can be very powerful since they can set expectations for people you have never met simply because they hear the lie first, and so can form an opinion about you before you have had the chance to show them your true self.
