The man who comes with a talk about others has himself an ax to grind

To listen well is as powerful a means of influence as to talk well and is as essential to all true conversation

To talk much and arrive nowhere is the same as climbing a tree to catch a fish

After three days without reading, talk becomes flavorless

Two good talkers are not worth one good listener

Talk does not cook rice

Scholars talk books, butchers talk pigs
