ELIZABETH ANN SETON SPEAKS
The love of talk distracts all the powers of our soul from God, and fills them with earthly objects and impressions, like a vessel of water that cannot be settled while you are continualy stirring the earthly particles from the bottom.
-- St. Elizabeth Ann Seton

I think that this quote is right on people like to talk so much they don't care what they are saying as long as they are talking.

I think that if you let the love talk get to you. You will eventually loose your goal and loose sight of what you had planned.

This is such a silly statement. If the love of talk "distracts all the powers of the soul from God" then religious leaders, and speakers, like Billy Graham & others, have nothing to say to us?
That their souls are like a vessel of water that can not be settled. She may be a saint but she sure is not an intellect. Why was this even posted??

As Ava probably once said" There is nothing wrong with having nothing to say - uinless you insist on saying it".
