“Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace.” ~ Buddha.
“Be Impeccable with your word. Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.” ~ Don Miguel Ruiz; Mexican author of Toltec spiritualist and neoshamanistic texts.
Quite often we tend to react emotionally to situations and people, destroying trust and distancing ourselves from clarity; and this happens when the mind is overwhelmed and angered, in conversations or even when we keep anger inside that we cannot contain.

So,
that is when the mind explodes and careless words come flying out just
like daggers thrust to an opponent in battle; however, as in battle, the
greatest warriors are the ones who remain calm, the ones who control
their reactions, and the ones who turn mental anger and fogginess into
mental strength and poise.
See, the fact that you must be firm and
serious in your battle, in your work, in your conversation with another,
does not mean you have to be careless and hurtful with your words.
Now, you must understand that when you let your mind explode and you say whatever comes out of your mouth, you are not just hurting others but you are hurting yourself; for in this process you condition your mind, your character, subconsciously perhaps, to be subjected to this poison which runs now throughout your whole system.
You not only destroy your own integrity
and peace of mind, but you destroy opportunities and distance yourself
from people that now see you as this ego-centered bully; furthermore,
your thoughts and words of anger or incomprehension release energy which
is negative and attract all sorts of stressing situations into your
life.
Your character develops strength based on the control on your reactions and the intentions you carry in thoughts and words.
Be patient, wait to respond or formulate your message, remain clear and do not allow your emotions to cloud your thinking.
