Best Quotes about Secrets

1.
Never tell a secret to a bride or a groom; wait until they have been married longer.
Howe, Edgar Watson

2.
If you reveal your secrets to the wind you should not blame the wind for revealing them to the trees.
Kahlil Gibran

3.
Secrecy is the badge of fraud.
Chadwick, Sir John

4.
Trust him not with your secrets, who, when left alone in your room, turns over your papers.
Lavater, Johann Kaspar

5.
What is told into the ear of a man is often heard a hundred miles away.
Proverb, Chinese

6.
To him that you tell your secret you resign your liberty.

7.
Secrecy is best taught by starting with ourselves.
Chamfort, Sebastien-Roch Nicolas De

8.
His mind of man, a secret makes I meet him with a start he carries a circumference in which I have no part.
Dickinson, Emily

9.
The first step towards vice is to shroud innocent actions in mystery, and whoever likes to conceal something sooner or later has reason to conceal it.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques

10.
Our true history is scarcely ever deciphered by others. The chief part of the drama is a monologue, or rather an intimate debate between God, our conscience, and ourselves. Tears, grieves, depressions, disappointments, irritations, good and evil thoughts, decisions, uncertainties, deliberations --all these belong to our secret, and are almost all incommunicable and intransmissible, even when we try to speak of them, and even when we write them down.
Amiel, Henri Frederic

11.
Secrets are things we give to others to keep for us.
Hubbard, Elbert

12.
Every thing secret degenerates, even the administration of justice; nothing is safe that does not show how it can bear discussion and publicity.
Acton, Lord

13.
Look in the mirror. The face that pins you with its double gaze reveals a chastening secret.
Diane Ackerman

14.
Secrets travel fast in Paris.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

15.
A secret between two is God's secret, between three is all mens.
Proverb, Spanish

16.
Three may keep a secret, if two of them are dead.
Benjamin Franklin

17.
Women's propensity to share confidences is universal. We confirm our reality by sharing.
Harrison, Barbara Grizzuti

18.
Men with secrets tend to be drawn to each other, not because they want to share what they know but because they need the company of the like-minded, the fellow afflicted.
Delillo, Don

19.
Nothing weighs on us so heavily as a secret.
La Fontaine, Jean De

20.
The best way to divulge a secret is to tell someone not to say anything about it.
Charles Fleischer

21.
What one hides is worth neither more nor less than what one finds. And what one hides from oneself is worth neither more nor less than what one allows others to find.
Breton, Andre

22.
Three can keep a secret if two are dead.
Franklin, Benjamin

23.
When a friend, then, indulges in the joy of unburdening a secret on to another friend's bosom, he makes the latter, in his turn, feel the urge to taste the same joy himself. He implores him, it is true, not to tell a soul; but if such a condition were taken absolutely literally, it would at once cut off the flow of these joys at their very source. The general practice is for the secret to be confided only to an equally trustworthy friend, the same conditions being imposed on him. And so from trustworthy friend to trustworthy friend the secret goes moving on round that immense chain, until finally it reaches the ears of just the very person or persons whom the first talker had expressly intended it never should reach.
Manzoni, Alessandro

24.
Secrecy is the first essential in affairs of the State.
Richelieu, Cardinal De

25.
To know that one has a secret is to know half the secret itself.
Beecher, Henry Ward

26.
It is wise to disclose what cannot be concealed.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von

27.
I usually get my stuff from people who promised somebody else that they would keep it a secret.
Winchell, Walter

28.
If you have to keep something secret it's because you shouldn't be doing it in the first place!
David Nicholls

29.
Where secrecy or mystery begins, vice or roguery is not far off.
Johnson, Samuel

30.
He that has eyes to see and ears to hear may convince himself that no mortal can keep a secret. If his lips are silent, he chatters with his fingertips; betrayal oozes out of him at every pore.
Freud, Sigmund

31.
How can we accept another to keep our secret if we have been unable to keep it ourselves.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

32.
Secrecy is the chastity of friendship.
Taylor, Jeremy

33.
There are no secrets better kept than the secrets that everybody guesses.
George Bernard Shaw

34.
A man can keep a secret better than his own. A woman her own better than others.
La Bruyere, Jean De

35.
Tell your friend a lie. If he keeps it secret, then tell him the truth.
Proverb, Portuguese

36.
We dance round in a ring and suppose, but the secret sits in the middle and knows.
Frost, Robert

37.
Shy and unready men are great betrayers of secrets; for there are few wants more urgent for the moment than the want of something to say.
Taylor, Sir Henry

38.
Everyone is like a moon, and has a dark side which he never shows to anybody.
Twain, Mark

39.
Trade your secrets and become who you are.
Frank Warren

40.
Your secret is your prisoner; once you reveal it, you become its slave.
Gabirol, Ibn

41.
Secret thoughts and open countenance will go safely over the whole world.
Scipione Alberti

42.
Where secrecy reigns, carelessness and ignorance delight to hide while skill loves the light.
Gelman, Daniel C.

43.
No one ever keeps a secret so well as a child.
Hugo, Victor

44.
The first rule of life is to reveal nothing, to be exceptionally cautious in what you say, in whatever company you may find yourself. If you have a secret, you have only to whisper it to your dearest friend with the strictest injunction that it will go no further, and within half a day the story is all over town, and when you do make what would seem to be a perfectly sensible remark, you will find it reported in the most grotesque form, thus incurring no end of criticism to rebound upon you.
Elizabeth Aston

45.
But he that hides a dark soul and foul thoughts benighted walks under the mid-day sun; Himself is his own dungeon.
Milton, John

46.
Whoever wishes to keep a secret must hide the fact that he possesses one.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

47.
You know there are no secrets in America. It's quite different in England, where people think of a secret as a shared relation between two people.
Auden, W. H.
