“It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt,”—Mark Twain.

Sometimes talking too much can ruin the good reputation we have built over the years. While silence may not be considered the best option in all cases, it is still the most preferred way to respond to certain questions that life poses.

When you are faced with a situation where you do not know what to say, it is better to keep mute and not say anything than make a fool of yourself. Once a reputation is shattered, it could take a very long time to piece it altogether again.
