Communication Proverbs

A mark of discipline is not simply choosing between good and bad, but between good and best.

Out of all the things you could say, choose the things you should say to accomplish your goal.

It's better to say a lot about a little than a little about a lot.

Don't be proud of your knowledge,

Consult the ignorant and the wise;

The limits of art are not reached,

No artist's skills are perfect;

Good speech is more hidden than greenstone,

Yet may be found among maids at the grindstones.

Instructions of Ptahhotep

If you don’t have a target, you’ll hit it every time.

You're always selling.

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.--say something, use a gimmick in Powerpoint, etc.
