Language Too Good to be Abused
Matthew 12:36
But I say to you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.


Language is so curious, so costly a gift, so impregnate with Deity, so vast in empire, that to misuse it, though in the least particular, may be likened to sacrilege, the profanation of an august and infinite mystery.

(H. Melvill, B. D.)
