Two kinds of Speeches and Silences

There are two kinds of speeches and two kinds of silences. Speech is either truth or a falsification, and silence is either fruition or heedlessness. If one speaks the truth, his words are better than his silence, but he who invents falsifications, his silence is better than his speech.

-Al-Hujwiri, "The Kashf al-Mahjub"
