Spare to speak and spare to speed, [51]

Sparrows should not dance with cranes, their legs are too short, [375]

Speak little and well, they will think you somebody, [277]

Speak little of your ill luck, and boast not of your good luck, [400]

Speak little, speak truth. Spend little, pay cash, [166]

Speak not ill of the year until it is past, [112], [235], [285]

Speak, that I may see thee, [166]

Speak well of your friend; of your enemy neither well nor ill, [91]

Speaking comes by nature, silence by understanding, [166]

Speaking is silver, silence is gold, [338]
