According to this, the more a person knows the less he speaks. This has been rather an important assessment of people. It’s the people who are silent most of the time that probably no more than the people that are talking most of the time.

Papa down the stairs, which is not what that sentence is all about. I 
have trouble hearing the whole sentence at times, and because of that, 
I can't remember how many Papa's I've thrown down the stairs. (Sorry 
about that, Papa.) 

I have noticed there doesn't seem to be a direct connection between my
thoughts and my tongue. If only they could get together and stay on the 
same subject, I would not get into so much trouble. 

So, when The Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage is exercising her 20,000
words per day, I can only process 7,000 of those words. So the problem 
I face is, which words am I going to process? 

I have trouble with my 7,000 words a day. I can't imagine how anybody of
the opposite gender can manage 20,000 words a day every day of the 
week. 

To choose the right words, I have to listen to the words that have been
coming my way. I don't always get it right. I try, and I'm getting 
better at it, but I still fail. 

While thinking about this I was reminded of a very important passage of
Scripture. “27 He that hath knowledge spareth his words: and a man of 
understanding is of an excellent spirit. 28 Even a fool, when he 
holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is 
esteemed a man of understanding” (Proverbs 17:27-28). 

According to this, the more a person knows the less he speaks. This has
been rather an important assessment of people. It's the people who are 
silent most of the time that probably no more than the people that are 
talking most of the time.
