Overwork makes for restless sleep. Overtalk shows you up as a fool.

For a dream cometh through the multitude of business; and a fool's voice is known by multitude of words.

For the dream comes through much effort and the voice of a fool through many words.

The saying is true: Bad dreams come from too much worrying, and too many words come from foolish people.

For a dream cometh with a multitude of business, and a fool’s voice with a multitude of words.

A dream comes when there are many cares, and many words mark the speech of a fool.

For a dream comes through much activity, And a fool’s voice is known by his many words.

For the dream comes through much effort, and the voice of the fool through many words.

Too much activity gives you restless dreams; too many words make you a fool.

For a dream comes with much business, and a fool’s voice with many words.
