The main objective for any honest, well-intentioned person is to know the truth, speak the truth and live the truth.
One useful way to do this is to curb one’s speech, not so far as one speaks freely, but as one uses outrageous assertions or speaks half-truths.
One should make one’s point, saying what one needs to say, no matter who is offended, but the speech should generally be accurate, dispassionate, sincerely shared, and temperate. If we seek to know the truth, and share the truth, the speech by which we convey our ideas is critically central to speaking truth and speaking it clearly and effectively.
