Saying much or less does not matter. What matters is to have the right mind.
【Xian'er says so: How to speak well. 】
Xianyi, Xian’er, Xianshan, Xiansi
Xianwu, Xianliu,Xianshi and Xianbai met for a meeting.
Xian’er said a lot and was reported to Shifu.
Shifu was quite unhappy with Xian’er. He criticized Xian’er for speaking too much.
Xian’er stayed quiet for the following meetings, and was reported again to Shifu.
Shifu criticized Xian’er again for not saying anything on purpose.
Xian’er asked Shifu,
what on earth should I do? To say something or nothing?
To say much or little?
Shifu poked at Xian’er’s head hard and said,
How old are you now? Why is it that you still ask me about everything?

Below are quoted from my Shifu’s new book, Say Good Things—Master Xuecheng’s insight on the path to speaking like a Buddha.  
Saying much or less does not matter. What matters is to have the right mind.
Others can feel your heart, be it sincere, caring, appreciative, or
be it hypocritical, indifferent and narrow-minded.

话多话少都是次要的，关键是心要好
| 贤二如是说：话要怎么说 |
贤一、贤二、贤三、贤四、
贤五、贤六、贤十、贤百开会，
贤二说了很多话，被告到师父那里，
师父很不满意，批评了贤二，说贤二话太多。
再开会的时候，贤二就不说话，什么也不说。
又被告到师父那里，说，贤二不说话，
师父很不满意，批评了贤二，
说贤二不说话，成心的。
贤二问师父，
那我到底是说话呢？还是不说话呢？
是说话多呢？还是说话少呢？
师父使了一指禅，狠狠地戳了贤二的脑袋，
说，你都多大了，怎么还是什么都要问我？

| 以下来自我师父的《好好说话》|
话多话少都是次要的，关键是心要好。
内心是真诚、关怀、欣赏，
还是虚伪、冷漠、排斥，
别人是能感觉到的。
