Let Thy Words Be Few

Ecclesiastes 5:1-3

Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God, and be more ready to hear, than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they consider not that they do evil.

Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty to utter any thing before God: for God is in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few.

For a dream cometh through the multitude of business; and a fool's voice is known by multitude of words.

"When you don't have anything to say, don't say it." ~Douglas Wilson (1953- ) from Joy at the end of the Tether
