Always Say Less

Description

Always Say Less Than Necessary. I base my life in general around this statement. More is not always better. Keep it minimal ladies and gentleman.

This quote and passage is an excerpt from Robert Greene's Novel "The 48 Laws of Power."

Small Text reads:
WHEN YOU ARE TRYING TO IMPRESS PEOPLE WITH WORDS, THE MORE YOU SAY, THE MORE COMMON YOU APPEAR, AND THE LESS IN CONTROL. EVEN IF YOU ARE SAYING SOMETHING BANAL, IT WILL SEEM ORIGINAL IF YOU MAKE IT VAGUE, OPEN-ENDED, AND SPHINXLIKE. POWERFUL PEOPLE IMPRESS AND INTIMIDATE BY SAYING LESS. THE MORE YOU SAY, THE MORE LIKELY YOU ARE TO SAY SOMETHING FOOLISH.
