Critical Speaking

Rabbi Yehudah Satmerer would often ridicule his audience.  During one sermon, when he realized what he had done, he paused and said," My friends, do not think for a moment that I intended all those harsh words only for you.  In reality I meant myself.  But since I am aware that you are no better than I am, I spoke a little louder so that you too should hear."

Be very careful before criticizing another.  Is your house all in order that you can speak about someone else's house?

“Between 1305 and the early 1800’s. the House of Taxis ran a form of pony express service all over Europe….   Its couriers clad in blue and silver uniforms, crisscrossed the continent carrying messages between princes and generals, merchants and money lenders.” –Alvin Toffler, The Third Wave We may think we are the first generation consumed by rapid communication but we are not.   Throughout our history it has been a priority. Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
