There are men who pride themselves on their candor, and it degenerates into brutality.
One such man said to John Wesley once, "Mr. Wesley, I pride myself in speaking my mind; that is my talent."
"Well," said John Wesley, "the Lord wouldn't mind if you buried that!"

Pro 12:18(ISV): "Some speak rashly like the cutting of a sword, but what the wise say promotes healing."
Js 1:26: "Do you think you are religious? If you do not control your tongue, your religion is worthless and you deceive yourself."
