Where words are restrained, the eyes often talk a great deal

Summary

This quote suggests that when someone refrains from speaking or expressing themselves verbally, their eyes can convey a significant amount of information and emotion. It implies that nonverbal cues, such as eye movements and expressions, can often communicate more effectively than words alone. These unspoken messages carry a subtle yet powerful form of communication, revealing true intentions, feelings, or thoughts that may not be explicitly expressed through speech.
