"Brevity is a fine thing in a speech."
"Want of study, and want of really knowing what one is driving at, must bear the blame of many a long and weary talk. Hence a short speech is usually of better quality than a long one; and if it is not, it is all the better that it is short" (Spurgeon, Salt Cellars Pg.87).
My father used to say: "I realize that God spoke through an ass one time, but must we always be subjected to so many of these braying jackasses?!"
