When asked what his first deed would be if he were to be made Emperor of China, Confucius replied, "I would re-establish the precise meaning of words."He knew that words have a dynamic power to kill or to cure, and should be used carefully. All religions, cultures, and civilizations have known and taught that your word is your power. Your words are constantly doing one of two things: building up or tearing down; healing or destroying.
