Never talk about the faults of others, no matter how bad they may be. Nothing is ever gained by that. You never help one by talking about his fault; you do him an injury, and injure yourself as well.
People are much more inclined to believe and say bad things about you if you're famous.
I think in Washington, D.C., a lot of people are talking down about business.
People are going to talk bad about you no matter who you are.
I don't at all like knowing what people say of me behind my back. It makes me far too conceited.
You're not going to say anything about me that I'm not going to say about myself. There's so many things that I think about myself; if someone really wanted to get at me, they could say this and this and this. So I'm going to say it before they can. It's the best policy for me.
A lot of people are crazy, cruel and negative. They got a little too much time on their hands to discuss everybody else. I have a limited amount of energy to blow in a day. I'd rather read something that I like or watch a program I enjoy or ride my damn motorcycle or throw back a couple of shots of tequila with my friends.
You know how gossip is. It's the toxic waste of small town
My philosophy is never start talking about 'if,' 'and,' 'but' or the past, because 90 percent of what follows will be negative.
I get hurt when people talk bad about me because I'm not that person that will hurt anybody.
No one loves to tell of scandal except to him who loves to hear it. Learn, then, to rebuke and check the detracting tongue by showing that you do not listen to it with pleasure.
It's easy for people to talk about the negative.
Less bitching...more learning.
Seeing people communicate about the band online has been amazing, but I think a lot of people spend a lot of time talking about what they hate rather than what they love. I don't want to get trapped in that.
People gonna talk whether you doing bad or good.
Some people in D.C. talk about me like a dog.
The haters want to hate. They want to talk about this and talk about that. We don't even acknowledge it.
Badmouthing your ex-spouse rips the child apart
What I learned in the military is that gossip starts early and it stays forever.
Whoever recounts to you the faults of your neighbour will doubtless expose your defects to others.
I had heard so much negative talk about our generation, that we're slackers and young fogies, that I knew wasn't true of the people I know.
Hearkners, we say, seldom hear good of themselves.
Fire and swords are slow engines of destruction, compared to the tongue of a Gossip.
The ball of rumor and criticism, once it starts rolling, is difficult to stop.
Listeners ne'er hear good of themselves.
