Quote by Dorothy Dix

Confession is always weakness. The grave soul keeps its own secrets, and takes its own punishment in silence.

Confession is always weakness. The grave soul keeps its own

Summary

This quote suggests that confessing one's secrets or wrongdoings is a sign of vulnerability and weakness. The idea is that those with strong and grave souls are capable of keeping their own secrets and accepting the consequences silently, without needing to seek redemption through confession. It implies that true strength lies in bearing the burden of one's actions and accepting the guilt or punishment internally, rather than relying on confession as a means of absolution.
