someone in Zhihu asked: why do people like silence as they get older?

A highly praised answer is: because some people have nothing to say and some words have no one to say.

the older you get, the more things you experience, but the more silent you become.

obviously there are a lot of things I want to say, but when I get to my mouth, I swallow it again; when I am misunderstood, I don't explain it and move on with my life.

is not old, but mature.

in the first half of my life, I looked down on a lot of things and saw a lot of people clearly; in the second half of my life, it was better to be silent than noisy.

if there is, there is no need to say

when I was young, I had little experience, always cared about other people's opinions, busy explaining when I heard gossip, and eager to argue when I was misunderstood. On the contrary, I said more mistakes than I could argue.

if you come into contact with more people and things, you will know that not all fish live in the same sea, and not all people can compare their hearts and think of others.

those who understand do not need to explain, but those who do not understand need not explain.

there is a figure named Fu Bi in the Northern Song Dynasty, which is famous for being good at debating.

one day, a poor scholar stopped Fu Bi in the street and said, "I hear you are eloquent. Let me ask you a question."

Fubi had no sulk on his face, and Wensheng replied, "Yes, please."

"what should you do if someone openly insults you?"

"I'll pretend I didn't hear it."

the man laughed at Fu Bi as a turtle who had shrunk his head, got a false name, and turned away.

the servant on one side was anxious: "this man is so rude, why don't you retort?"

Fu Bi said, "this man came with anger." If I argue with him, I must be blushing. Even if he was defeated by the quarrel, he was not convinced. Why should I contend with him when it is so futile? "

other people's taunting and scolding, do not take it too seriously, you know yourself, you know yourself is enough.

there is God's judgment of right and wrong. He laughs and scolds me. I laugh from the sky. Regardless of the wind from east to west, I stand still and never change my way of life.

time is silent, but it can always answer all questions; silence is the best response.

if there is, you can't say

there is a passage in the movie "the View of Love and Marriage in an era".

the hero Charles met an ordinary friend at a party. Charles wanted to get acquainted with him. After a few pleasantries, Charles found a topic and asked with concern, "how is your girlfriend?"

my friend smiled and said, "she is no longer my girlfriend."

when Charles heard this, he immediately comforted him: "Don't be sad, people say she's been having an affair with Toby."

at this time, the friend's face was cold and shocked, and he said, "she is already my wife!"

the atmosphere suddenly became so awkward that Charles wanted to dig a hole and run away at full speed.

Zhou Guoping once wrote in the book quiet position:

Fan Zhongyan, a famous scholar of the Northern Song Dynasty, lost his father at the age of one, and his mother remarried and was forced by life, so he followed his mother and lived a life of dependency.

the stepfather's children ridiculed him, and the children around him laughed at him. When he was young, he read every day and night, and when he was extremely sleepy, he watered his face with cold water to dispel tiredness.

he cooks a pot of sticky porridge, divides it into two porridge when it is cool, and eats one in the morning and evening, mixed with a little chopped leek and a little salt, which is a "good meal".

such an unbearable life for ordinary people, Fan Zhongyan never complains or tells outsiders. Many years later, it finally came to fruition.
