Summary

This quote suggests that effective communication involves not only speaking, but also listening and paying attention to nonverbal cues. When engaged in a conversation, it is important to be observant of the other person's response. If they nod their head in agreement but remain silent, it implies that they may not have anything else to add or may be hesitant to speak further. Recognizing this cue is a sign to stop talking and give space for the other person to contribute if they wish. In doing so, we can ensure meaningful and respectful conversations.
