Summary

This quote emphasizes the power of one meaningful word that can have a stronger impact than a multitude of empty words. It highlights the significance of quality over quantity in communication.

It underscores the value of choosing our words wisely and reminding us that their impact can be far-reaching and transformative when they are genuine and carry the intention of peace.
