What should we understand by 'golden' in this statement? How important is silence in the every day life and in the relationships with the people around us?
Well, we can say that this old saying can be discussed from different points of view and each one is interesting in its own. First of all, silence is certainly "golden" when compared to speaking evil. How wonderfully "golden" the "silence" would be if all whispering, gossip, backbiting, lying, slander and such like could be forever stopped. That’s why all of us need to pay more attention to our speech and think twice before saying something in order not to offend somebody or to stop behaving badly in society.

Secondly, there are persons who prefer being calm and silent in the relations with the ones aro
und them and this behaviour is just a means of realizing that person can say more by being silent. It gives us clues about the character of that person, that he may be someone we can trust in as he prefers no to speak too much about his life or that of others. Very frequently, many people may be guilty of saying too much because they can become boring telling several facts of no interest or they can say many foolish things. That’s why we should agree that at times ‘silence is golden’.

On the other hand, there are times when silence is not "golden’ because we choose to remain silent when in fact we should speak up. This is a proof of cowardice because we don’t have the power to tell what we really think and to be responsible for our deeds. There are times when it is our obligation to speak up and tell the truth. Many times those who should speak out and warn of danger remain silent because they are afraid or fear that they might hurt someone's feelings. Therefore, we should learn how to say the truth even if there are circumstances when it is very difficult to do this because it is maybe an unpleasant and uneasy task.

Then, silence is golden between friends because it is the base of confidence and is essential for people to have the courage to tell their problems, to ask for an advice and to have the certainty that their queries won’t be heard by others.
All in all, silence is of great importance depending on the situation and we should learn to appreciate its value as much as we appreciate gold.
