" Silence is one of the great arts of conversation. "

Communication is conveying a message from one person to another right? And this communication has different components. Words, body language and in some cases, silence. 

Silence is synonymous to space in any written sentence. Without it words will get jumbled and confusing. It gives meaning to other words and enhances the meaning of the conversation.

Apart from that, it's better not to speak instead of speaking something that defies what you want to convey or saying something that is inappropriate.
