Muchtalking is the cause of danger. Silence is the means of avoiding misfortune.The talkative parrot is shut up in a cage. Other birds, without speech, flyfreely about.
Thoroughnesscharacterizes all successful men. Genius is the art of taking infinite pains.All great achievement has been characterized by extreme care, infinitepainstaking, even to the minutest detail.
Neverforget the power of silence, that massively disconcerting pause which goes onand on and may at last induce an opponent to babble and backtrack nervously.
