Twenty-five years ago profanity was found on every side. Today you find
it only among laborers. Business men won't allow profanity.
Swearing goes with lying. The truthful man can look you in the eye and
chisel out his words and you know he means it.
The liar gets angry and swears, and he is a bluff.
Truth doesn't need curse words to make it stick.
Some great men swear and many small men swear. Usually, however, the
truly great man doesn't swear.
Men who think, men who study and analyze, seldom swear.
Swear words are usually used as fillers in sentences. Some men have
limited knowledge of adjectives so they resort to swearing.
Mark this when you hear a man firing a volley of profanity in rapid
succession--You lose respect for that man!
Profanity is an easier habit to acquire and harder to give up than its
distant relative, slang.
Slang has its value for it has taken place of much profanity.
Slang and profanity, and logic and thought don't mix well together. The
more profanity, the less brains in your make-up. Profanity is a
hold-back.
