"Would you prefer to say everything on your mind all the time (no matter what) or never speak again?"

Nicholas N. Dyer – Foley & Lardner
"I would choose the latter.  Effective communication would be destroyed by the former, as half-formed impressions would be voiced without the opportunity for further reflection that would, in turn, sow misunderstanding on the part of the listener."

Michael Thompson – Foley & Lardner
"I would say everything on my mind all the time – though my friends and family would want me to never speak so they don't have to hear my complaining."
