Quote by Jean Jacques Rousseau
People who know little are usually great talkers, while men who know much say little.
Summary
This quote reflects the notion that individuals who possess limited knowledge tend to be more inclined to talk extensively, often appearing as confident and outspoken. On the contrary, those with extensive knowledge and wisdom tend to express themselves more modestly and reservedly. It suggests that a depth of knowledge can instill humility and make a person more thoughtful and selective with their words, understanding the vastness of what they do not yet know.
