April 13, 2007: The Tongue

All acts of living become bad by ten things,and by avoiding the ten things they become good. There are: 3 evils of the body, 4 evils of the tongue, and 3 evils of the mind. (Buddha)

There is no evidence that the tongue is connected to the brain. (Frank Tyger) Note: This 'guy' possed for Herb - on our way up to Fraser's Hill. Nature has given us two ears, two eyes, and but one tongue-to the end that we should hear and see more than we speak. (Socrates) Note: Herb at Mamak restaurant, shortly after we arrived in Penang. At table keep a short hand; in company keep a short tongue. (Turkish proverb) Note: On the way to Jeriau Waterfall, Fraser's Hill.
