“Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.” or how the Hong sisters finally joined Song Jae-jung on my black list.

    So true. Actually, my uncle who was an immigrant to the US as a child hardly spoke at all in high school. 30 years later at his high school reunion, he found out that the other students all thought he was the “genius who never said a word because he already knew it all.” He didn’t speak because he couldn’t, not that he wouldn’t. He just didn’t know the language well enough! But he had the reputation of being super intelligent, when in reality he was a B/C student. We’ve instilled that it’s better to fly under the radar and be silent than to broadcast your accomplishments to the world. Wish other people taught that to their kids.
