Peter

“Children have never been very good at listening to their elders, but they have never failed to imitate them.”
― James Baldwin

“Them that dally nicely with words may quickly make them wanton.”
― William Shakespeare, Twelfth Night

“But, indeed, words are very rascals, since bonds [vows] disgraced them."
Viola: "Thy reason, man?"
Feste: "Troth [Truthfully], sir, I can yield you none without words, and words are grown so false, I am loathe to prove reason with them.”
― William Shakespeare, Twelfth Night
