Kindness is the language that the deaf can hear and the dumb can understand.

I had found this quote somewhere and wondered why it was unknown, it sounded so profound. Barbara said… Mark Twain said Kindness is the language that the deaf can hear and the blind can see… I wonder where the dumb can understand came from… Good quote, but I think someone’s messed it up a bit…
So we stand updated and corrected.
Oh I’m sure someone took it and twisted it a bit… there are a lot of spoof quotes out there… I have a lot of Twain quotes in my docs, so I see this one often flipping through the docs looking for the quote that jumps out at me that week 🙂
Hmmmmmmmmm – I wondered why it was unknown. I think I’ll amend this post to reflect your comment.
