meaning

You can get better service if you complain about something. If you wait patiently, no one's going to help you.

Yoli, it´s o.k. posting here. I think it´s equal.

Another one by Blessed Mother Teresa:

The trees, the flowers, the plant grow in silence.
The stars, the sun, the moon move in silence.
Silence give us a new perspective.
