Silence is the invisibility of talking. I'd take half an argument over half a silence any day. And I'd take peace and quiet over a full-blown argument any other day, unless it's Tuesday.

About This Quote

Silence is the invisibility of talking. I'd take half an argument over half a silence any day. Words can hurt and silence can hurt more because words, when they’re used by the right person, can heal and make you feel better. But when it’s used by the wrong person, words can make you feel worse.

So, when you find yourself in a fight with someone, do yourself a favor and end it before it starts. If that’s not in your power, then imagine what would happen if you were in a silent room in a situation where you felt like you couldn’t win. It could be even worse than what you’re experiencing now.
