About this Quote

This quote by Edgar Rice Burroughs recommends that people commonly speak without thinking. It implies that people usually say points without taking into consideration the consequences or the ramifications of their words. This is especially real in casual conversations, where individuals commonly speak without considering the impact of their words. The quote recommends that individuals usually speak without utilizing their thinking faculties, as well as instead rely upon reaction or feeling to lead their words.

It is necessary to think prior to speaking, and also to take into consideration the ramifications of our words prior to we say them. This quote serves as a suggestion to assume before we speak, as well as to be mindful of the influence our words can have.
