"Still waters run deep my dear, there's never smoke without fire." says famous poet
"Still waters run deep. Quiet music-- play it loud." - says famous musician
How do we measure words? Significant words are weighty, which is good. Sad words are heavy, which is burdensome. In philosophy we measure words in weight instead of volume, which I guess is the opposite of journalists paid by the word. In prayer we’re warned we won’t be heard because of our many words. And I always think the mark of the very bright is their ability to say great volumes with few words.
The people who smolder and smile quietly to themselves are the keepers of all the good secrets and the mystery.

Beautiful thoughts. As a musician (lyricist) I esp. liked the last line.
