The young, brash and impatient, must always break the silence. It is a waste, for silence is pure. Silence is holy. It draws people together because only those who are comfortable with each other can sit without speaking. This is the great paradox.”

Your silence will not protect you
You forgot silence is awkward, and boring. And those who will not break the silence are the true cowards, far too afraid to stand out. I'm not afraid to break the silence, i do it all the times, at both school when a teacher asks a question and on the forums.
