Of every ten persons who talk about you, nine will say something bad, and the tenth will say something good in a bad way. Antoine Rivarol
You should not do an autobiography if you want to tell the truth. There are a lot of things I know about people. If I can't say something good about a person, I don't want to say anything. And since I don't want to say anything bad, I won't write a book. Abraham A. Ribicoff
If you can't say something good about someone, come sit right here by me. American Proverb
