It’s
characteristic of this virtue to regulate and guide words and
actions. Prudence helps us to speak wisely and at the right time,
causing us to converse discreetly and judiciously of things that are
good
in their nature and circumstances and to keep silent about and
suppress those that are contrary to God or which may harm the
neighbor or tend to our own praise or to some other bad end. (SV XI,
42)
