He who speaks does not know.”The famous Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu wrote this thousands of years ago in the Taoist book Tao Te Ching, one of the most translated books in the world, second only to the Bible. Join me in this episode where I discuss this brief but impactful quote about what speaking and what silence really reveal about the knowledge or wisdom of the individual. Support the showAt The Quotive Corner, remember that wisdom isn’t in the quote.
