I heard this proverb when i was in middle school, we used to speak about a proverb every monday (i remember that i had course at 8.00 am :D ) so the teacher told us that its a japanese proverb but who really know?
the arabic version is :
إذا كان الكلام من فضة فالسكوت من ذهب
it sound like "ida kana lkalam min fidda fa sokut min dahab "
