Quote by Baltasar Gracian
Little said is soon amended. There is always time to add a word, never to withdraw one.
Summary
This quote emphasizes the importance of thoughtful and measured communication. It suggests that when we speak or express ourselves, it is easier to revise or clarify our message if we have said too little. However, once words are spoken, it becomes difficult, if not impossible, to take them back. It serves as a reminder to choose our words wisely and consider the consequences before saying something that may be regretted later.
