What does the proverb better to remain silent and be thought a fool that to speak and remove all doubt mean?

Answer:
Basically it means to choose your words wisely. Quite often the people who are seen as the smartest are the ones who speak the least, and they only speak when they are sure of the answer. If you do not know the answer and you stay quiet some people may think you don't know. If you try to answer and you don't know the answer, you will prove you do not know.
