“If you have nothing to say. Say nothing.”
That’s what Mark Twain wrote.
So what is this Twaddle tendency many of us exhibit?
Ambiguous ideas transform into vacant ramblings. It is hard to speak when your ideas are confused and confusing.
The best speakers are those who harshly critiqued their copies and spend plenty of efforts and time to clarify their ideas and subject matter.
If you are afraid to be viewed as a simpleton, refrain from saying your clear and simple statements.
Otherwise, clear and simple statements are the domain of the courageous people who have a purpose and passion.
The worse off a company is the greater the talk of the CEO
The fewer results in a scientific field the more babble is necessary in the published works
The more voluminous the book the more irrelevant chapters and paragraphs are inserted.
The more eloquent the haze of words, the more easily we fall for them.
Useless chatter is what characterize the volumes of philosophers.
