To use bitter words, when kind words are at hand,Is like picking unripe fruit when the ripe fruit is there. ~ Thiruvalluvar

Bitter Words quotes by Letitia Elizabeth Landon
You will soon regret the bitter words you fumed when you were angry. ~ Israelmore Ayivor
Bitter Words quotes by Israelmore Ayivor
Better choose silence than bitter words which shall leave nothing but bitter footprints ~ Ernest Agyemang Yeboah
Bitter Words quotes by Ernest Agyemang Yeboah
QUEEN ELIZABETH. O thou well skill'd in curses, stay awhile
And teach me how to curse mine enemies!
QUEEN MARGARET. Forbear to sleep the nights, and fast the days;
Compare dead happiness with living woe;
Think that thy babes were sweeter than they were,
And he that slew them fouler than he is.
Bett'ring thy loss makes the bad-causer worse;
Revolving this will teach thee how to curse.
QUEEN ELIZABETH. My words are dull; O, quicken them with thine!
QUEEN MARGARET. Thy woes will make them sharp and pierce like mine.
DUCHESS. Why should calamity be fun of words?
QUEEN ELIZABETH. Windy attorneys to their client woes,
Airy succeeders of intestate joys,
Poor breathing orators of miseries,
Let them have scope; though what they will impart
Help nothing else, yet do they case the heart.
DUCHESS. If so, then be not tongue-tied. Go with me,
And in the breath of bitter words let's smother
My damned son that thy two sweet sons smother'd.
The trumpet sounds; be copious in exclaims. ~ William Shakespeare
Bitter Words quotes by William Shakespeare
Bitter words normally evaporate with the moisture of breath, after a quarrel. In order to become permanent, they require transcribers, reporters, complicit black hearts. ~ Barbara Kingsolver
Bitter Words quotes by Barbara Kingsolver
Strong and bitter words indicate a weak cause. ~ Victor Hugo
Bitter Words quotes by Victor Hugo
That bitter word, which closed all earthly friendships and finished every feast of love farewell! ~ Robert Pollok
Bitter Words quotes by Robert Pollok
Strange sometimes how easy bitter words came, how hard the kind ones. ~ Winston Graham
Bitter Words quotes by Winston Graham
You will especially not find anyone who speaks bitterly to you. All the 'diseases' [worldly suffering] remains due to the sweetness. Bitterness will remove the disease, sweetness will increase it. Your life should be such that you will not have to listen to bitter words. If however, you have to listen to bitter words, then you should listen to it. It is always beneficial. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Bitter Words quotes by Dada Bhagwan
Be like sugarcane sweet yet silent
don't get mixed up with bitter words ~ Rumi
Bitter Words quotes by Rumi
Burn God's words into your heart, His thoughts into your mind and His ways into your actions; and you'll have a Spirit-filled life. ~ Alisa Hope Wagner
Bitter Words quotes by Alisa Hope Wagner
Words indeed have been my ruin; they have consumed me, and to the end I cannot be free of them. ~ Ivan Turgenev
Bitter Words quotes by Ivan Turgenev
What good is it for you to be able to discuss the Trinity with great profundity, if you lack humility, and thereby offend the Trinity? Verily, high sounding words do not make one holy and just. But a life of virtue does make one acceptable to God. Were you to memorize the entire Bible and all the sayings of the philosophers, what good would this be for you without the love of God and without grace? Vanity of vanities. All is vanity, except loving God and serving only God.49 ~ Justo L. Gonzalez
Bitter Words quotes by Justo L. Gonzalez
The most valuable of all talents is that of never using two words when one will do. ~ Thomas Jefferson
Bitter Words quotes by Thomas Jefferson
The arts help children learn to say what cannot be said. When children are invited to disclose what a work of art helps them feel, they must reach into their poetic capacities to find the words that will do the job. ~ Elliot W. Eisner
Bitter Words quotes by Elliot W. Eisner
But what it all boils down to is three words that don't mean nearly enough ... I love you. ~ S.C. Stephens
Bitter Words quotes by S.C. Stephens
This is cunnilingus you're describing, right?"
"Good lord, where did you find that word?"
"I saw it in the dictionary."
"Are we perusing the dictionary for profane words now?"
"I wanted to know how to pronounce it properly. The accent is on the third syllable."
" Ah, good to know. Because that word is always likely to come up in casual conversation. ~ Kathy Cecala
Bitter Words quotes by Kathy Cecala
Although music appeals simply to the emotions, and represents no definite images in itself, we are justified in using any language which may serve to convey to others our musical expressions. Words will often pave the way for the more subtle operations of music, and unlock the treasures which sound alone can rifle, and hence the eternal popularity of song. ~ Hugh Reginald Haweis
Bitter Words quotes by Hugh Reginald Haweis
My affection for you does not depend on those small things.'
Affection? To hear him admit it, to actually utter words of love, however understated, astonished me. ~ Peter Goldsworthy
Bitter Words quotes by Peter Goldsworthy
She shook the voices out of her head, but the words left a shadow, a phantom image that never entirely disappeared. ~ Kami Garcia
Bitter Words quotes by Kami Garcia
Pilate's skeptical sneer "What is truth?" was addressed to Truth Himself, standing there right in front of his face. The world's stupidest question was three words; God's profoundest answer was one Word. ~ Peter Kreeft
Bitter Words quotes by Peter Kreeft
No hatred is so bitter as that of near relations. ~ Tacitus
Bitter Words quotes by Tacitus
In writing The Invention of Wings, I was inspired by the words of Professor Julius Lester, which I kept propped on my desk: "History is not just facts and events. History is also a pain in the heart and we repeat history until we are able to make another's pain in the heart our own." ACKNOWLEDGMENTS My deepest thanks to . . . ~ Sue Monk Kidd
Bitter Words quotes by Sue Monk Kidd
I know what's like to be young and have atrocious spelling, spelling words all backwards, mixing up numbers, addresses. and things like that. ~ Ashley Scott
Bitter Words quotes by Ashley Scott
Her life is a wrecked boat torn apart for kindling and set ablaze to send a message to the sky from a deserted beach. From a distance the words spell SAVE ME. The closer the sign the clearer the statement. Turns out it says FUCK YOU. ~ Merri Lisa Johnson
Bitter Words quotes by Merri Lisa Johnson
When I try to speak perfectly then I am not Jackie Chan anymore. Some words sound like I am trying too hard. The whole thing is not me. ~ Jackie Chan
Bitter Words quotes by Jackie Chan
Mark my words, Lila. You'll be mine in all ways you can imagine. ~ Stephanie Witter
Bitter Words quotes by Stephanie Witter
To say shortly why one values love is not easy; nevertheless, I will make the attempt. Love is to be valued in the first instance - and this, though not its greatest value, is essential to all the rest - as in itself a source of delight.

Oh Love! they wrong thee much
That say thy sweet is bitter,
When thy rich fruit is such
As nothing can be sweeter.

The anonymous author of these lines was not seeking a solution for atheism, or a key to the universe; he was merely enjoying himself. And not only is love a source of delight, but its absence is a source of pain. In the second place, love is to be valued because it enhances all the best pleasures, such as music, and sunrise in mountains, and the sea under the full moon. A man who has never enjoyed beautiful things in the company of a woman whom he loved has not experienced to the full the magic of power of which such things are capable. Again, love is able to break down the hard shell of the ego, since it is a form of biological cooperation in which the emotions of each are necessary to the fulfilment of the other's instinctive purposes. ~ Bertrand Russell
Bitter Words quotes by Bertrand Russell
It's one of those things that if I was smart enough to explain it in words, I wouldn't have had to make a movie [ "World Of Tomorrow" ] out of it. It's a love letter to science fiction. ~ Don Hertzfeldt
Bitter Words quotes by Don Hertzfeldt
When the attention is on me, off-camera, I get uncomfortable - sort of shy and at a loss for words, as you can probably tell? ~ Guillermo Diaz
Bitter Words quotes by Guillermo Diaz
Words are the light and sound of our existence, the heat lightning by which the night is illuminated. ~ Dan Simmons
Bitter Words quotes by Dan Simmons
Damen said, with helpless honesty, "Laurent, I am your slave."

The words laid him open, truth exposed in the space between them. He wanted to prove it, as though, inarticulate, he could make up for what divided them. He was aware of the shallowness of Laurent's breath, it matched his own; they were breathing each other's air.

He reached out, watching for any hesitation in Laurent's eyes. The touch he offered was accepted as it had not been last time, fingers gentle on Laurent's jaw, thumb passing over his cheekbone, soft. Laurent's controlled body was hard with tension, his rapid pulse urgent for flight, but he closed his eyes in the last seconds before it happened. Damen's palm slid over Laurent's warm nape; slowly, very slowly, making his height an offering, not a threat, Damen leaned in and kissed Laurent on the mouth.

The kiss was barely a suggestion of itself, with no yielding of the rigidity in Laurent, but the first kiss became a second, after a fraction of parting in which Damen felt the flicker of Laurent's shallow breathing against his own lips.

It felt, in all the lies between them, as if this was the only true thing. It didn't matter that he was leaving tomorrow. He felt remade with the desire to give Laurent this: to give him all he would allow, and to ask for nothing, this careful threshold something to be savoured because it was all Laurent would let himself have. ~ C.S. Pacat
Bitter Words quotes by C.S. Pacat
When words cease to cling close to things, kingdoms fall, empires wane and diminish. ~ Ezra Pound
Bitter Words quotes by Ezra Pound
She was in big trouble now.
"You stupid man," she said to the body on the floor. "Why did you have to lunge at me like that? Why couldn't you have left well enough alone? I told your father I wasn't going to marry you. I told him I wouldn't marry you if you were the last idiot in Britain."
She nearly stamped her foot in frustration. Why was it her words never came out quite the way she
intended them to?
"What I meant to say was that you are an idiot," she said to Percy, who, not
surprisingly, didn't respond, "and that I wouldn't marry you if you were the last man in Britain, and- Oh, blast. What am I doing talking to you, anyway? You're quite dead. ~ Julia Quinn
Bitter Words quotes by Julia Quinn
Perhaps the deterioration of American education is illustrated by the high correlation between the number of years a person has attended school and his inability to understand the words "the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." It is more likely, though, that those who interpret the Second Amendment to preclude an individual right to own guns are driven by their political agenda. Whichever the case, they do themselves no credit when they tell us that a simple, elegant sentence means the opposite of what it clearly says. ~ Sheldon Richman
Bitter Words quotes by Sheldon Richman
It was possible to be struck dumb by all sorts of emotions, not only surprise, and as they drove back toward Pittsford, Amina thought that there ought to be a whole set of words to encompass all those different varieties of silence. ~ Nell Freudenberger
Bitter Words quotes by Nell Freudenberger
She felt him relax and his voice softened. "Is that what this is all about? You feel like you can't talk to me anymore? We haven't changed; we're still the same people."
She slipped her hands beneath the front of his shirt, slowly running her fingertips over his chest and back down to his waist. He turned in her arms and smiled, but his grin was filled with mocking suspicion. "Are you trying to distract me, Violet Ambrose?"
"I guess you're smarter than you look," she teased as he pushed her backward so that they both fell on her bed.
"And you are not as funny as you think you are." His mouth hovered over hers, his arms tightening, crushing her against him. Violet giggled and tried to squirm free, but Jay wouldn't let her. He kissed her throat, his lips teasing her until it wasn't his grip that made it hard for Violet to breathe.
"Oh, and Violet," he whispered against her ear, his breath tickling her cheek, "I'm still your best friend. Don't ever forget it." His words were fervent and touching.
Violet tried to think of a response that made sense, something appropriate, but all she could manage was: "Please. Don't stop."
She didn't mind begging if it meant getting her way.
Apparently that was enough to satisfy Jay, and he kissed her possessively. Thoroughly. Deeply.
He eased her back until she was lying against the pillows, and she waited for him to stop, to tell her that they'd gone far enough for tonight. But she didn't want him to. S ~ Kimberly Derting
Bitter Words quotes by Kimberly Derting
Grammar is like your overarching compulsion. It's math with words. ~ Thomm Quackenbush
Bitter Words quotes by Thomm Quackenbush
Where do I belong?"
"With me," my mother and Galen say in unison. They exchange hard glares. Galen locks his jaw.
"I'm her mother," she tells Galen, her voice sharp. "Her place is with me."
"I want her for my mate," Galen says. The admission warms up the space between us with an impossible heat and I want to melt into him. His words, his declaration, cannot be unspoken. And how he's declared it to everyone who matters. It's out there in the open, hanging in the air. He wants me for his mate. Me. Him. Forever. And I'm not sure how I feel about that. How I should feel about that.
I've known for some time that he wanted that eventually, but how soon? Before we graduate? Before I go to college? What does it mean to mate with him? He's a Triton prince. His place is with the Syrena, in the ocean. And let's not forget that my place with them is dead-no Half-Breeds allowed. We have so much to talk about before this can even happen, but I feel saying so might make him feel rejected, or embarrass him in front of his older brother, the great Triton king. Or like I'm having second thoughts, and I'm not. Not exactly.
I peer up at him, wanting to see his eyes, to see the promise in them that I heard in his voice.
But he won't look at me. He's not looking at Mom, either. He keeps his iron glare on Grom, unyielding and demanding. But Grom doesn't wither under the weight of it. In fact, he deflects it with an indifferent expression. They are definitely engaging i ~ Anna Banks
Bitter Words quotes by Anna Banks
The Gap
You speak at 130 words per minute;
you think at 1,000.
That 870-word gap
between thinking and talking
is when you put our foot in your mouth. ~ Beryl Dov
Bitter Words quotes by Beryl Dov
Speak out in acts; the time for words has passed, and only deeds will suffice. ~ Alfred North Whitehead
Bitter Words quotes by Alfred North Whitehead
There is no law stronger than that of
magic. - Kian ~ Kailin Gow
Bitter Words quotes by Kailin Gow
He (Abraham Lincoln) said he wanted to visit the Holy Land and see those places hallowed by the footprints of the Saviour. He was saying there was no city he so much desired to see as Jerusalem. And with the words half spoken on his tongue, the bullet of the assassin entered the brain, and the soul of the great and good President was carried by the angels to the New Jerusalem above. ~ Mary Todd Lincoln
Bitter Words quotes by Mary Todd Lincoln
Words define us,' Mom continued, as I struggled to make my clumsy marks look like her elegant script. 'We must protect our knowledge and pass it on whenever we can. If we are ever to become a society again, we must teach others how to remain human. ~ Julie Kagawa
Bitter Words quotes by Julie Kagawa
Is that … chocolate cake?"

"I thought you might need some."

"Need, not want?"

A ghost of a smile was on her lips, and he almost sagged in relief as he said, "For you, I'd say that chocolate cake is most definitely a need."

She crossed from the fireplace to where he stood, stopping a hand's breadth away and staring up at him. Some of the color had returned to her face.

He should step back, put more distance between them. But instead, he found himself reaching for her, a hand slipping around her waist and the other twining itself through her hair as he held her tightly to him. His heart thundered through him so hard he knew she could feel it. After a second, her arms came up around him, her fingers digging into his back in a way that made him realize how close they stood.

He shoved that feeling down, even as the silken texture of her hair against his fingers made him want to bury his face in it, and the smell of her, laced with mist and night, had him grazing his nose against her neck. There were other kinds of comfort that he could give her than mere words, and if she needed that kind of distraction … He shoved down that thought, too, swallowing it until he nearly choked on it.

Her fingers were moving down his back, still digging into his muscles with a fierce kind of possession. If she kept touching him like that, his control was going to slip completely.

And then she pulled back, just far ~ Sarah J. Maas
Bitter Words quotes by Sarah J. Maas
What I want are words that reflect my heart, not my cleverness. ~ Hugh Prather
Bitter Words quotes by Hugh Prather
Some people have a way with words, and other people ... oh, uh, not have way. ~ Steve Martin
Bitter Words quotes by Steve Martin
His lips met mine again, this time in a slow, soft caress, conveying everything he had just said in those beautiful words that had reached my very soul. I could have drowned in that kiss. I could have lived there for eternity. It filled me up with everything I needed to survive. He gave me life through his lips and I treasured it. ~ Nicola Claire
Bitter Words quotes by Nicola Claire
When these words release my hand
they go away, they all go away
to look for the father. ~ Ricardo M. De Ungria
Bitter Words quotes by Ricardo M. De Ungria
Only thing he'd been told was that Keeley was in bad shape and needed help. Under-fucking-statement of the year! His sister-in-law was lying in the middle of the street, bloody and wailing. Her words incomprehensible. And E wanted nothing more than to annihilate the person responsible for causing it. Though he was pretty sure he already knew. Heaven help Tarius McNeil when he got his hands on him. E ~ Lora Ann
Bitter Words quotes by Lora Ann
The Child Angel
Let your life come amongst them like a flame of light, my child,
unflickering and pure, and delight them into silence.
They are cruel in their greed and their envy,
their words are like hidden knives thirsting for blood.
Go and stand amidst their scowling hearts, my child,
and let your gentle eyes fall upon them like the
forgiving peace of the evening over the strife of the day.
Let them see your face, my child, and thus know the
meaning of all things, let them love you and love each other.
Come and take your seat in the bosom of the limitless, my child.
At sunrise open and raise your heart like a blossoming flower,
and at sunset bend your head and in silence
complete the worship of the day. ~ Rabindranath Tagore
Bitter Words quotes by Rabindranath Tagore
The definitive words we already know will never fully describe any new moment: because the truth about a moment, is in it. As such, let's be fully present for every moment so that these newly birthed moments can reveal their truth about what they really are. ~ Jacent Mary Mpalyenkana
Bitter Words quotes by Jacent Mary Mpalyenkana
After lunch Poirot begged me to accompany him home. I consented rather stiffly.
"You are annoyed, is it not so?" he asked anxiously, as we walked through the park.
"Not at all," I said coldly.
"That is well. That lifts a great load from my mind."
This was not quite what I had intended. I had hoped that he would have observed the stiffness of my manner. Still, the fervour of his words went towards the appeasing of my just displeasure. I thawed. ~ Agatha Christie
Bitter Words quotes by Agatha Christie
It tastes of the most bitter poison . . I've never tasted something so disgusting." - Mark Blackthorn ~ Cassandra Clare
Bitter Words quotes by Cassandra Clare
The only antidote to the magic of images is the magic of words. ~ Camille Paglia
Bitter Words quotes by Camille Paglia
If only I were articulate to paint in the frail medium of words what I see and know and possess incorporated in my consciousness of the mighty driftage of the races in the times before our present written history began! ~ Jack London
Bitter Words quotes by Jack London
News is nothing but words, and you can never really tell if words are news. ~ Jose Saramago
Bitter Words quotes by Jose Saramago
These are not my people." The neutrality of the vocalizer makes his words more poignant for their lack of vehemence. "This is my race, but these are not my people." I don't know what to say to that, but he goes on, so I don't need to deal with my inadequacy. "I left here because I did not fit. I traveled, but never did I ... " He pauses, as the translator seeks a word - or perhaps he is thinking. "Belong. In more turns than you can imagine, the closest I have ever come to a home is with you, Sirantha. ~ Ann Aguirre
Bitter Words quotes by Ann Aguirre
Your words like wings gravity they defy.
My heart like a leaf on the wind catchin' rides.
We make too much sense to foolishly pass it by.
So I'm taking a rainbow up to the 5th floor.
Steppin' out to see that you're really worth more. ~ Group 1 Crew
