“Silence is necessary and even indispensable. Indeed, when silence is lacking, God’s graces dry up. We then cease to be instruments in the Immaculate’s hands, and we can only spoil her deeds, even if we accomplish the most sublime actions.
Silence does not mean saying nothing, but speaking only to the extent that the Immaculate wishes it; as much as, no more than. To speak only as much as necessary, we should continuously watch over ourselves, in order to say only what is indispensable for the conduct of daily business.” — St. Maximilian Maria Kolbe
