Sorry, all out of trees
Never going to happen in "real" life. There wouldn't be any free will. or, Maybe the tree only sheds leaves when his words aren't "meaningful." That would REALLY kill our free will. Still, the message is there. As my friend's watch blinks at him: "Watch Your Words!"

alloted words
Richard writes: "Our sages tell us that a person is predestined to expire after having spoken their allotted number of words they will utter in their life. " -- Just to be precise, though the Talmud does not mention this teaching, a few Chassidic rabbis in the past two hundred years have thought it. R' Elimelech of Nidov and Rabbi Naftali Zvi Horowitz of Ropczyce are examples.
