Let no man speak in the shadowed corner of a neighbour’s ear that which he would tremble to utter in the open square. For the tongue that delighteth in secret tales often withereth when called to stand and defend its own words beneath the light of day.

True virtue lieth not in the pleasure of whispering, but in the courage to speak only that which the heart is willing to own before all. He who guardeth his lips in private, as though the whole assembly listened, buildeth a foundation of character that no storm can shake. But he who soweth words in darkness that he cannot harvest in light shall one day reap a harvest of shame and broken trust.

Walk therefore, dear souls, with such wholeness that thy secret counsel and thy public voice remain as one. For in this quiet discipline is the soul refined, and integrity made manifest.
