I've learned to keep your mouth shut even when something bad is going on. You never know how someone is going to take something you say. You have to bite the bullet.

I know things, but I shut my mouth. They don't want me to speak, so I don't speak.

One of the most beneficial things I've ever learned is how to keep my mouth shut.

I learned that when something just has to be said to move the discussion along, or broaden it or deepen it, if I can just keep my mouth shut for five minutes a student will say it. So for me a lot of teaching is about keeping my mouth shut.

I have trouble voicing my thoughts... I can't communicate very well that way.

My trouble is I talk first and think later.

I do have a mouth - I will say. I speak up when I see things I don't care for.

What I do when speaking in public is trying to do it as best as possible and trying to make everybody comfortable with my words. Sometimes getting this is very difficult, but I try my best.

Keep silence for the most part, and speak only when you must, and then briefly.

Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut.
