Excellent, many could benefit from heading the message.

Most people do not know the rules and customs of communication, they are half listening, anxious, almost rabid to grab the podium and give an anecdotal experience which is not informative, but rather self serving. Ignore them.

Do not give answers to questions that have not been posed, keep your knowledge, and opinions too, until someone seeks them from you.

Knowledge is sought from those that do not lecture or pose, but quietly gain a reputation, as reservoirs of knowledge to serve a nation.

Answers that are based in fact, answers that are short and exact, answers that prove to be true, then the world comes back to you.

A good speaker prevails knowing that the most important aspects of life are the qualitative and not the quantitative.
Knowing the price of everything and the value of nothing is fools' work.

Remember to take the lower seat so you may be elevated, instead of taking the high seat of importance, and then be embarrassed when you are ask to step down for someone who is greater.

So is the case when speaking, do not volunteer an opinion, wait until you are asked the question and you will have a captive audience, in anticipation, awaiting your answer.

A good choice of subject matter to write on. Its information many should read, consider, and take to heart. I love the way the piece gets it's point across strongly without using (too) many words or thoughts, which is the point of the piece. Well done!

I think this would have worked better as a poem. I would have liked to have seen it listed as a prose poem. and not non-fiction. It doesn't work for me as non-fiction.

You make some good points in this, ALD

Intelligent people will choose their words wisely before speaking, since they have to be accountable for what is said.

A few minor things to look at..

A true wise person tells what true - what's true or what is true
necessary, is needed - both mean the same - suggest you delete one OR better still:
absolutely necessary

Seems to me that if man followed the pholodophy when would he have the opportunity to speak? To many restrictions placed.
Good piece of writing to ponder further.

A great lesson in philosophy. "Man who is not truly wise makes mistakes by telling anything and everything on, about and concerning anything and anybody at any time or any place." Powerful message and a true method of ethics to live by.
