Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of self-control and thinking before speaking, especially in moments of anger. It suggests that when we speak out of anger, we may say things that we later regret. By speaking impulsively, we may lose control over our words and end up making a speech that is hurtful, damaging relationships or causing other undesirable consequences. Thus, this quote serves as a reminder to act with caution and avoid letting our emotions guide our speech in moments of anger.
