I be quiet.
Is it incorrect?
One of my friends told me that "I be quiet" is an incorrect sentence. I don't know what to say.
Please clear this confusion.
Also, when I looked for this sentence, there was a sentence like.
You be quiet.
If this is correct, then why is "I be quiet" incorrect? May I know please?

In addition, you can also say "I'd better be quiet".
