The best thing about animals is they don't talk much.

Summary

This quote suggests that one of the best qualities of animals is their lack of excessive communication. It implies that animals offer a sense of simplicity and directness in their communication, which can contrast with the complexities and sometimes dishonesty of human interaction. By not talking much, animals can provide a serene and authentic presence that can be comforting and enjoyable to be around. Their silence can create a peaceful environment that allows people to connect with nature and enjoy a break from the noise and demands of human communication.
