Abe read a lot of Mark Twain stuff, however, for your enlightenment:

https://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/mark_twain_103535#:~:text=%22It%20is%20better%20to%20keep%20your%20mouth%20closed,than%20to%20open%20it%20and%20remove%20all%20doubt.%22

It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.
