Bible
For the king knoweth of these things, before whom also I speak freely: for I am persuaded that none of these things are hidden from him; for this thing was not done in a corner.
|
Bible
The secret things belong unto the Lord our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.
|
Bible
Tell it not in Gath, publish it not in the streets of Askelon; lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.
|
Bible
For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.
|
Ed Howe
Never tell a secret to a bride or a groom; wait until they have been married longer.
|
Hazrat Ali (a.s)
The mind of a wise man is the safest custody of secrets; cheerfulness is the key to friendship; patience and forbearance will conceal many defects.
|
Horace (Quintus Horatius Flaccus)
Never inquire into another man's secret; bur conceal that which is intrusted to you, though pressed both be wine and anger to reveal it. [Lat., Arcanum neque tu scrutaveris ullius unquam, commissumve teges et vino tortus et ira.]
|
Jean de la Bruyere
We trust our secrets to our friends, but they escape from us in love. [Fr., L'on confie son secret dans l'amitie, mais il echappe dans l'amour.]
|
Jean de la Fontaine
Nothing is so oppressive as a secret: women find it difficult to keep one long; and I know a goodly number of men who are women in this regard. [Fr., Rien ne pese tant qu'un secret: Le porter loin est difficile aux dames; Et je sais meme sur ce fait Bon nombre d'hommes que sont femmes.]
|
Jean Paul Richter
He who gives up the smallest part of a secret has the rest no longer in his power. [Ger., Wer den kleinsten Theil eines Geheimnisses hingibt, hat den andern nicht mehr in der Gewalt.]
|
Johann Kaspar Lavater
Trust him not with your secrets, who, when left alone in your room, turns over your papers.
|
John Dryden
He who trusts secrets to a servant makes him his master.
