- George A. Smith

About this Quote

This quote by George A. Smith speaks with the concept that those who are strong and effective typically utilize their words without idea or factor to consider for the consequences. They have not been humbled by the problems and dissatisfactions of life, and so they are most likely to speak without considering the impact of their words. This can be seen in numerous elements of life, from politics to organization to relationships. Those who are effective may be most likely to make rash choices or speak without thinking about the effects. This quote functions as a suggestion to be conscious of the power of words and to think prior to speaking. It is very important to remember that words can have an enduring effect, and it is necessary to be familiar with the prospective repercussions of our words.
