Wisdom is not in the words we say but in the silence that follows

The closest to this, that I have seen, is, "The truth of communication is found not in the words we speak, but in the silence that precedes and follows our words"

Interesting. "Silence" seems to be a common element here. Thanks.

yes it is. i've heard of this one:
''Knowledge speaks; but wisdom listens"
and you have to be silent to listen

Yes, wisdom "listens". But does our modern day culture give us the "space" to listen. And having listened, how much do we understand. Is it a dynamic of our "life experience" (another way of saying how old we are)?
