There is a chinese saying which carries the meaning that"A speech will iether prosper or ruin a nation." Many relationships break off because of wrong speech.When a couple is too close with each other,we always forget mutual respect and courtesy. We may say anything without considering if it would hurt the other party.
A friend and her millionaire husband visited their construction site. A worker who wore a helmet saw her and shouted, "hi,Emily! Remember me? We used to date in the secondary school." On the way home,her millionare husband teased her, "Luckily you married me.Otherwise you will be the wife of a construction worker." She answered,"You should appreciate that you married me.Otherwise,he will be the millionare and not you."
Frequently exchanging these remarks plants the seed for a bad relationship.It's like a broken egg cannot be reversed.

Last speaker
At a large conference,at the end of the first speech,about half the audience walked out.At the end of the second speech,everybody else walked out,except for the third speaker and one other person.The third speaker went to the podium and said,"Are you sure you want to stay?If you leave, I won't have to make this speech."The person replied,"I'm the last speaker."
