Good people are gossipy; bad people are flattering.
Good people are talkative; bad people are sweet-talking!
Just as facing flattery tests a person's ability to remain calm and maintain a spirited determination in the face of setbacks, so too does confronting criticism test a person's resilience and resolve.
We should strive to be humble learners, accepting guidance when offered, correcting our mistakes when proven wrong, and complementing our own weaknesses with the strengths of others.
Don't judge based on appearances alone; hasty judgments reveal a person's character. Words can betray a person's integrity.
Words are easily spoken, but genuine concern lies in actions.
Those who don't want to help will conjure countless excuses, while those who do, even with harsh words, will find ways to assist.
Honest people speak directly and plainly, which can offend others, but their kindness and trustworthiness are unwavering.

Let time be the judge of good and bad words. Good people will live peacefully.
Good people are talkative; bad people are sweet-talking.
