Inspirational Podcast Excerpt : There is great power in the words of a wise woman or man, but their silence is more powerful still. The greatest people teach us most effectively when they are purposely silent. The silent attitude of the great teacher (perhaps noted by only one or two disciples) is recorded and preserved through the ages; while the flamboyant words of the merely clever talker — heard by thousands, and at once popularized — are neglected and forgotten in, at most, a few generations. --------------------- Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.
