I Didn’t Mean That. . . Wait. . . Yes I Did
George Eliot once quipped, “It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.” We all have difficult people in our lives - some a little harder to bear than others. Likely, you know a roommate or co-worker who should wear this quote as a sign to tape his or her mouth safely shut. Each of us puts a foot in the mouth now and then, but some could use their shoelaces as daily floss, they spend so much time in that predicament.
What’s the best way to react to these blunders or faux pas? It may depend on your relationship to the person, or the title they hold at your place of employment. In my experience, it is always the best policy to not “hear” these slip-ups. It may take incredible will-power to keep mum, and you may even take out a chunk of your lip biting down to keep back a laugh, but it will pay off in the end. Keeping good relations with those you spend the bulk of your time with is always in your best interest.

I’ve heard that same quote about keeping your mouth shut being attributed to both Lincoln and Twain. I suspect that it’s really just an “anonymous” quote that has later been attached to some famous (in this case famous and wise) person to give it more credibility. Not that the maxim isn’t something to keep in mind, but it’s important to note what the real source probably is (just some saying that’s been passed down).
“It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.” this is the exact quatetion. There are a lot of ways to redirect or avoid or handle blunders.My suggestion is think more and say a little.In this way any one can become less blunder person.
