Speak not injurious words neither in jest nor earnest; scoff at none although they give occasion.

Pay no attention to harsh words uttered by others.

If ever asked to look at yourself, don't.

You won't make yourself a bit realer by crying.

I don't mind making jokes, but I don't want to look like one.

Don't gobblefunk around with words.

It is easier not to speak a word at all than to speak more words than we should.

Do you wish people to believe good of you? Don't speak.

All you have to do, I tell myself, is keep your mouth shut and look stupid. It shouldn't be that hard.

When a thoughtless or unkind word is spoken, best tune out. Reacting in anger or annoyance will not advance one’s ability to persuade.

Flattery won’t hurt you if you don’t swallow it.

If you’d keep your nose out of things that don’t concern you, you wouldn’t hear so much that offends you.

Don’t whine. Don’t complain. Don’t make excuses.

If you wouldn't say it to their face, then don't say it to them on social media.
