Nizar VS Dickenson

Nizar Qabbani said...
 
إن الحروف تموت حين تقال
 
While Emily Dickenson had said...
 
A word is dead
when it's said
some say
I say it just
begins to live
thant day
 
Who do you think is right?

Personally, I prefer Emily's idea... though Nizar coined his words in a more impressive way.

Well, in some cases, silence is better. But if you have something good to say that will probably result in soemthing good, then I think it's better to speak it out.
