It's the mystery.

"Our two minds .... One is an act of the emotional
mind, the other of the rational mind. In a very real
sense we have two minds, one that thinks and one that
feels" (Daniel Goleman, Emotional Intelligence,
Bloomsbury Publishing, London, 1996, page 8).
The Upanishads call the emotional component of mind as
Chitta and the rational component of mind as Manas. In
general, women excell in Chitta and men excell in
Manas. Men of few words use Chitta most of the time.
Chitta is the component connected with intuition.
Modern psychologists say that passions have the same
limitations of senses as they tend toward immediate
emotional discharge. Chitta is the quick acting
component of the mind which can be termed as leftist or
negative thinking part. It is called negative because
some psychologists felt that it separates the received
information into pieces, contains unintentional and
contradictory ideas, and lacks internal organisation,
inner consistency, and concrete solutions. On the
contrary, some philosophers thought that this is the
'idealistic view' of thinking about a problem. Chitta
is connected with instincts, urges, impulses, desires,
emotion, imagination, sentiments, passions, caring,
pleasure, exploration, unconventional ideas, moods,
insight, superstitions, immodesty, immorality, analysis
of details, concern about particular features, capacity
to find novel relationships, unrestrained expressions
connected with body or mind, molding of past
experiences into new constellations of meanings,
creation of artistic, poetic and musical works and the
like. Seeing a good work of painting or listening to
music of one's liking will set waves of emotion in
Chitta. It helps us to imagine things in new ways. It
is known that lighter side of life like fun may contain
silly and ridiculous situations. An artist is said to
go to the extremes to divorce himself from
environmental constraints.

Have you ever heard the phrase, "It is better to be quiet and have people think you're an idiot than to open your mouth and prove it?" Men of few words are the ones we still have hope for!

They use just enough words to answer the question or solve the problem. Then they put their words into action.

Perhaps they listen more. Maybe they value knowing more than letting someone know they know. Often they have enough confidence in themselves that they do not have the need to prove something to those around them.

A few well-chosen words provoke thought.

Because they speaks only according to their thoughts.
