True indeed. People who talk a lot usually have nothing to say.

Silence is often under-rated.It is way better to remain quiet than to say the wrong thing at the wrong time.

I've met some people who've been in some serious trouble to shooting their mouths off rather than taking the rule of silence. Sometimes the best way to answer anything is with a deafening silence than an empty yell.

I'm sure that I've needed this advice at some point in my life, especially during my opinionated teen-aged years :) Arguing the point is usually of no use, which I have certainly learned over the years. For the most part, I have figured out when to talk and when to just sit back and listen to the whole thing, without adding my opinion into the mix.

This is some of the best personal, business, and professional advice I ever heard. . ."At some point in a negotiation, the next person who talks loses." - but you have to know when that point is. . .

I have an index card on my desk that says, "Never miss an opportunity to just shut up." This is a reminder to me that I can learn a lot by just listening and I can avoid some stupid spontaneous thoughts from escaping.

sometimes it does no good to argue. you can do it until you are blue in the face and never get any further than where you were at the beginning of the argument.

I like this one. I also like, a well-timed silence has more eloquence than words.
