I have a quote which has sprung to mind, but I cannot remember the exact wording of it or the source and I wonder if anyone could help me please

It goes something like :-

"If people were to only speak the truth, a deadly hush would descend upon the earth."

I seem to think that it is a Native American Indian saying.

Thanks in anticipation

Love

Orchid xx

I searched www.quotationspage.com and http://www.quotesandsayings.com/finquoteframes.htm , but found nothing.

Well, "nothing" isn't right...
I did find some good (and some funny) stuff... http://www.quotationspage.com/subjects/lies/ http://www.quotationspage.com/subjects/truth/

And the wise Slovenians:
Speak the truth, but leave immediately after.
- Slovenian Proverb
