(per Wikiquote), is ...
Talking and eloquence are not the same: to speak, and to speak well, are two things. A fool may talk, but a wise man speaks. (per Ben Jonson)
I must say that I think this quote is not worthy of inclusion.
I agree that talking and eloquence are not the same. I also agree that to speak, and to speak well, are two things. (I would probably insert the word 'different' between 'two' and 'things'.)
Where I REALLY disagree is in the final sentence, "A fool may talk, but a wise man speaks."
How about an even MORE wise man LISTENS???
