Margaret Lee RunbeckSilence make the real conversations between friends. Not the saying, but the never needing to say that counts.
About This Quote
Unspoken words are often more meaningful than what is said. It is not uncommon for two people to speak to each other for several minutes without saying a single word. They may even sit in silence for several minutes before continuing their conversation. This is one of the few times when you can actually know what another person is thinking without them needing to express it.
When you are forced into silence, you can sense that the other person is thinking about something important and it makes you want to open up and share with them.
