Thinking before speaking

During my readings this morning I was looking at Proverbs 10 and came across the following in verse 19:

When words are many, sin is not absent, but he who holds his tongue is wise.

So many times in my life I have opened my mouth and spoke without thinking beforehand. The damage is then done as words cannot be taken back. Oh to have the wisdom to hold my tongue and remember this verse!
