UNFAIR SPEACH IS SELF DESTRUCTIVE

Ethical speech - speaking fairly of others, honestly about ourselves, and carefully to everyone, is so important. It is important to keep the power of words in the foreground of our consciousness.

 

Unfair speech does more than harm its victim; it is also self-destructive. When we speak ill of someone, we alienate ourselves from that person.
