James 3:4-5
4Look at the ships too: though they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are nevertheless directed by a very small rudder wherever the inclination of the pilot determines. 5So also the tongue is a small part of the body, and yet it 1boasts of great things.
2See how great a forest is set aflame by such a small fire!
