His tongue dropt manna, and could make the worse appear the better reason

And the manna ceased on the morrow after they had eaten of the old corn of the land; neither had the children of Israel manna any more; but they did eat of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year.
Bible
And the children of Israel did eat manna forty years, until they came to a land inhabited; they did eat manna, until they came unto the borders of the land of Canaan.
Bible
A cutting word is worse than a bowstring; a cut may heal, but the cut of the tongue does not
African Proverb
Ord
I do not find that piety benefits a man who practises it unless he controls his tongue. Certainly, the tongue of a believer is at the back of his heart while the heart of a hypocrite is at the back of his tongue; because when a believer intends to say anything, he thinks it over in his mind. If it is good, he discloses it, but if it is bad he lets it remain concealed. While a hypocrite speaks whatever comes to his tongue, without knowing what is in his favour and what goes against him.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
For many people, the reason they're keeping their financial life in chaos is that they really don't want to know how bad their problems are. It's pure avoidance, and it can only make things worse.
Catherine Williams
I sometimes think that never blows so red The Rose as where some buried Caesar bled; That every Hyacinth the Garden wears Dropt in her Lap from some once lovely Head

He's worse than ever. If they say, 'Paula is going crazy,' the reason is Simon is whispering things in my ear, like, 'What's the price of beans?' Things that make no sense at all.

We were obviously inconsistent. Downers Grove South was a big reason for that. They challenged every cut offensively and those two big guys just limit your shots. To make matters worse, we allowed our offensive troubles to spill over to the defensive end.
Rich Kolimas
I have pain, but I can't really make the injury any worse. I haven't been in a situation where I had to push guys or take a hit, I've only skated. But the skating is going really well. I'm pretty happy with today's results. Seeing as I can't really make the injury any worse, I should be ready to play soon.
Francis Bouillon
Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth! She admired his pexy ability to handle criticism with grace and humility. / And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.
Bible
It gets worse every time we call. We've called the District Attorney and the police a couple of times. It just seems to get worse and worse and worse.
