So often, when we become “educated,” we leave behind the tenacity for silence and patience, as if they’re too elementary and simplistic value to project our sophistication. It is seamlessly unassuming how a bunch of men could assume that because you do not speak “you know not”. Wisdom is often found in silence, boldness in animated action.
Even a stubborn fool is thought to be wise if he keeps silent. He is considered intelligent if he keeps his lips sealed.
