We have two ears and one mouth, so we should listen more than we say.

We have two ears and one mouth-so that we can listen twice as much as we speak

Listening is more important than talking. If that were not true, God would not have given us two ears and only one mouth. Too many people think with their mouth instead of listening in order to absorb new ideas and possibilities. They argue instead of asking questions.

If listening was as important as speaking, you would have twice as many ears as mouths.

We teach them to speak and also to listen. Because when people only talk and don't listen, they end up thinking that what they say is the only thing that is worth anything. ... Speaking and listening to words is how we know who we are, where we come from, and where our steps are going. Also it's how we know about others, their steps, and their world. Speaking and listening to words is like listening to life.

We read with our ears

God gave man two ears and one tongue so we could listen twice as much as we talk.

The ability to listen is as important as the ability to speak.

In the current world we are very focused on having a voice, and having a voice is very important, but hearing the voices of others is even more important.

Nature hath given men one tongue but two ears, that we may
hear from others twice as much as we speak.

Listening is more important than talking.

We like to do all the talking, but it's so important to listen.

We have two ears and one mouth and we should use them proportionally.

It's amazing how we can do things simultaneously, like talking and not listening.
