Watch out for the joy-stealers: gossip, criticism, complaining, faultfinding, and a negative, judgmental attitude.
Joyce Meyer
Image
For prying into any human affairs, non are equal to those whom it does not concern.
Victor Hugo
Image
I think the hardest part about being a teenager is dealing with other teenagers - the criticism and the ridicule, the gossip and rumors.
Beverley Mitchell
Image
There is a vital force in rumor. Though crushed to earth, to all intents and purposes buried, it can rise again without apparent effort.
Eleanor Robson Belmont
Image
Gossip, even when it avoids the sexual, bears around it a faint flavor of the erotic.
Patricia Ann Meyer Spacks
Image
Gossip is the currency of the discourse, so you should shut up about yourself. Never confess, never explain, never apologize, and never complain.
Dave Hickey
Image
Too many individuals are like Shakespeare's definition of echo,--babbling gossips of the air.
Josh Billings
Image
Most women indulge in idle gossip, which is the henchman of rumor and scandal.
Octave Feuillet
Image
I like the way the stories of my relationships sound to music more than the way they look in print, in gossip columns or in me talking about them in interviews. I think it's a better way of telling the stories.
Taylor Swift
Image
Gossip has been described as halitosis of the mind.
Croft M. Pentz
Image
A newspaper, not having to act on its descriptions and reports, but only to sell them to idly curious people, has nothing but honor to lose by inaccuracy and non-veracity.
George Bernard Shaw
Image
Sometimes I think the human animal doesn't really need food or water to survive, only gossip.
Steve Toltz
Image
It is among uneducated women that we may look for the most confirmed gossips. Goethe tells us there is nothing more frightful than bustling ignorance.
Nicolas Chamfort
Image
He only profits from praise who values criticism.
Heinrich Heine
Image
Don't speak evil of someone if you don't know for certain, and if you do know ask yourself, why am I telling it?
Johann Kaspar Lavater
Image
Gossip is certainly one of the things that language is useful for, because it's always handy to know who needs a favor, who can offer a favor, who's available, who's under the protection of a jealous spouse. And being the first to get a piece of gossip is like engaging in insider trading: You can capitalize on an opportunity before anyone else can.
Steven Pinker
Image
How awful to reflect that what people say of us is true!
Logan Pearsall Smith
Image
I'd never really babysat. I feel like I'm Blair, or 'Gossip Girl.' A teenager, basically - and now suddenly I'm a mom?
Cecily von Ziegesar
Image
The talent of insinuation is more useful than that of persuasion, as everybody is open to insinuation, but scarce any to persuasion.
Lord Chesterfield
Image
If your neighbors talk about you, and you think that they do wrong in speaking evil of you, do not let them know that your ever heard a word, and conduct yourselves as if they always did right, and it will mortify them, and they will say, We'll not try this game any longer.
Brigham Young
Image
Out of some little thing, too free a tongue can make an outrageous wrangle.
Euripides
Image
I don't like the celebrity gossip culture, and I certainly don't want to contribute to it. I don't care about the Kardashians, or any of them.
Merrill Markoe
Image
I believe all literature started as gossip.
Rita Mae Brown
Image
Information and images bump against each other every day in massive quantities, and the resonance of this interfacing is like the babble of a village or tavern gossip session.
Marshall McLuhan
