2 ears and 1 mouth = listening more

A quote from Epictetus that I’ve heard many times:

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

It leads to something interesting questions:

  • How can you use this quote to improve your pastoral care?
  • How can your team use this quote to improve the atmosphere at youth events?
  • Is this quote actually helpful or just a load of rubbish?
