The heart of a fool is in his mouth, but the mouth of a wise man is in his heart.
-Benjamin Franklin
The heart of a fool is in his mouth, but the mouth of a wise man is in his heart.

The mouth obeys poorly when the heart murmurs.
-Voltaire
Because God has made us for Himself, our hearts are restless until they rest in Him.
-Saint Augustine of Hippo
There may be a great fire in our hearts, yet no one ever comes to warm himself at it, and the passers-by see only a wisp of smoke.
-Vincent van Gogh
Each of us in our own way can try to spread compassion into people’s hearts. Western civilizations these days place great importance on filling the human ‘brain’ with knowledge, but no one seems to care about filling the human ‘heart’ with compassion.
The mind knows only what lies near the heart.
-Edith Hamilton
"Mythology"
The union of two hearts is a veritable sacred scriptural rite.
The very strength that protects the heart from injury is the strength that prevents the heart from enlarging to its intended greatness within. The song of the voice is sweet, but the song of the heart is the pure voice of heaven.
Within the lotus of the heart He dwells, where nerves meet like spokes of a wheel at its hub. Meditate on Him as Aum, Easily may you cross the sea of darkness.
I have not broken your heart - you have broken it; and in breaking it, you have broken mine.
-Emily Brontë
