- Abstract
The article discusses listening traits in human. It states that listening in eager silence is a sign of great forbearance and maturity. It mentions that wise man listening in silence says more than the endlessly talking simpleton. Human should remain silent, to increase the likelihood of hearing something advantageous, something that might bring personal benefit to himself. It mentions that one sometimes remains silent because one has nothing to say. Some interrupt their flow of words because their rare flashes of silence might bring wonderment and amusement to others. Listening can be conventional especially when enhanced by periodic head nods and barely audible sounds of approval.Listening is not the same as not speaking.
