A critic is a gong at a railroad crossing clanging loudly and vainly as the train goes by. - Christopher Morley
If I could speak all the languages of earth and of angels, but didn't love others, I would only be a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. - Anonymous
Want of foresight, unwillingness to act when action would be simple and effective, lack of clear thinking, confusion of counsel until the emergency comes, until self-preservation strikes its jarring gong - these are the features which constitute the endless repetition of history. - Winston S. Churchill
Without trust, words become the hollow sound of a wooden gong. With trust, words become life itself.
