" Listen to many, speak to a few. "

Listening is more important than speaking. Many people speak to prove their point and satisfy their ego by saying everything they want. 

When you speak too much, you're just presenting your ideas and point of view and there is no learning or understanding in it but if you listen to others, you can understand a situation from many perspectives and may lead you to change your idea of the world. 

Don't listen to reply, listen to actively respond.
