Quiet people can appear to have wisdom

Have you ever thought a quiet person had mystery and an air of wisdom and when you actually get them to talk you realize they’re just not very bright or dull?

Wisdom doesn't shine from being quiet. It shines from the things people say, when they say.
@SW-User she said at the right time.

Nah

I’ve always found the quiet ones to be leaders of the universe

knowledge is knowing what to say, wisdom is knowing whether or not to say it...
"George Washington, the Stoic, used his “gift of silence” shrewdly, and surely it is his actions more than his words that echo down to us today. “Rise but seldom” (to speak, that is)—words Washington seemed to live by. After all, he never spoke in debate at the Constitutional Convention, over which he presided."
Shut up I have a good thing going!

Proverbs 17:27-28
The man of few words and a settled mind is wise; therefore, even a fool when he is silent is thought to be wise. It pays him to keep his mouth shut.

Always better to keep silent and look intelligent than to open you mouth and prove the opposite.

Maybe "some". Sometimes "some" talkative/loud people just [i]think[/i] they know.
I prefer quiet people.
I'm a quiet one IRL I listen to a lot others say n live through to try n learn from that.
lol but no some people just don't talk. But that may be true for some people.
