BECAUSE a man has reputation
Tor telling the truth is no indication
that his truthfulness is in all cases
commendable, Some people with
even the best of intentions do not
know how to curb their tongues.
They blurt out the truth upon all
occasions, and particularly at the
wrong time. There are times
when the cause of Justice and
humanity requires the suppression
of the truth until the psychological
moment for divulging it. Any
other course would result in disaster
or a miscarriage of justice. A wise
tongue knows when not TO wag.
