No show no speak

A quote meaning: “If you don’t want people to talk about something, then don’t show it off. Or in more technical terms, don’t have it easily visible at all.”

The quote teaches the lesson that unfortunately most people use visible first impressions to determine a person’s entire character. So only show off things you know will either go down well, or at the very least you can back up when criticism is thrown your way.

Person B: “Well, sorry bro, but unfortunately No show no speak, that’s just the way it is.”
