"Words are like knives. When used incorrectly, they turn into foul weapons. You have to understand the opponent's heart and use them with discretion. No matter who it is you're dealing with."
And also this one, which is similar:
"Words are like swords. If you use them the wrong way, they turn into ugly weapons. There are cases of broken friendships that should have lasted a lifetime if not for verbal abuse. Once you sever your ties, you might not see each other again."
Both quotes were from my favorite anime "Detective Conan". Though the 1st was from an episode titled "Three Days With Hattori Heiji" and the 2nd one was from the 11th Detective Conan movie "Quarter Or Silence". And these quotes became the words of wisdom that, unconsciously at first, I ended up applying to myself. How so? I've always watched the words that were about to come out of my mind. And I'd rather not say anything if I knew it would offend or hurt someone.
