Expressing the views is also a art.

Sometimes you can't say direct truth, it got to be twisted without changing the meaning. When you say, the people should be convinced of their blind practice, social errors, superstitious acts.
That is the art of speech.

With this you can correct the mistakes, errors of the society.
