He who talks much cannot always talk well.
Chi parla troppo non può parlar sempre bene.

More quotes by Carlo Goldoni
The world is a beautiful book, but of little use to him who cannot read it.
Noble blood is an accident of fortune; noble actions characterise the great.
He only half dies who leaves an image of himself in his sons.
