Speech is like a mother who is always available for her child even in dirty places – always use it Speech is like the mother of children, meaning, just like a mother always accompanies her son even to filthy places, and she doesn't forget them, so too the spoken word accompanies a person always even in the filthy places and reminds him constantly of Hashem Yisburach, in the aspect of (Jeremiah 31:20, and see below end of article 96) “for whenever I talk of him I remember him so much more,” that is, that even if a person is stuck, Heaven forbid, in very low standing, in the place that he is, Heaven forbid, even still, by means of speech he can always remind himself of [-by/with] Hashem Yisburach, meaning, that even if he is where he is, if nevertheless he strengthens himself even there to speak holy words of Torah, and prayer, and conversation between himself and his Maker, or to speak with his rabbi or with his friend in fear of Heaven, he can always remind himself of (/by) Hashem Yisburach even there, in the filthy places, even if he fell to the place where he fell – may the Merciful One save us, for the spoken word doesn't let him be, to forget Hashem Yisburach. Understand this matter well, of the great power of speech, it is a wondrous and awesome aitza (remedy/advice) for someone who truly desires not to forfeit his world entirely, Heaven forbid. (Likutay Moharan, torah 78; Likutay Aitzoas, speech 19).
