Recognizing Greatness
There is an old maxim to the effect that only good should be spoken of the dead. It is a noble half-truth, and ought to be considered by those who are inclined to injure the good names of people whose voices are stilled in death.

But why should generous praise wait for death? Why can we not introduce the element of eternity into our judgment of living men so that greatness may be recognized and encouraged before it takes its difficult journey into the valley of the shadow?

What is evil? Killing is evil, lying is evil, slandering is evil, abuse is evil, gossip is evil: envy is evil, hatred is evil, to cling to false doctrine is evil; all these things are evil. And what is the root of evil? Desire is the root of evil, illusion is the root of evil.
- Buddha
No one gossips about other people's secret virtues.
- Quote by Bertrand Arthur William Russell
