Der Kavalier genießt und schweigt. [Sprw.] Just enjoy it and be quiet.

Über ihr Alter schweigt sie sich aus. She's very coy about her age.

Wer schweigt, weil er sich seiner Verfehlungen oder nur seiner Fehlbarkeit bewusst ist, beweist Anstand, aber sein Verhalten gerät nicht zum Vorbild, weil es unbemerkt bleibt. [G] Whoever keeps silent because he is conscious of his lapses or his fallibility, proves his sense of decency, but his conduct does not become a model because it remains unnoticed.

The example sentences [G] were kindly provided by the Goethe Institute.
