“Give thy thoughts no tongue.”
William Shakespeare
“Break, break, break, On thy cold gray stones, O sea! And I would that my tongue could utter The thoughts that arise in me”
Alfred Lord Tennyson
“My conscience hath a thousand several tongues, And every tongue brings in a several tale, And every tale condemns me for a villain”
“For murder, though it have no tongue, will speak - With most miraculous organ”
“That man that hath a tongue, I say, is no man, if with his tongue he cannot win a woman.”
“When I look on you a moment, then I can speak no more, but my tongue falls silent, and at once a delicate flame courses beneath my skin, and with my eyes I see nothing, and my ears hum, and a wet sweat bathes me, and a trembling seizes me all over”
Sappho
“There is no evidence that the tongue is connected to the brain”
Frank Tyger
