Why Silence is Golden?

Better to remain silent and let people think you're an idiot, than to open your mouth and  prove it.

It's kind of like a ticking clock-you know how sometimes, a clock will sound really, really loud, and then you just don't hear it anymore cause you tune it out?  Same thing- sometimes you're hyper-aware of it, sometimes you don't even notice.  It feels normal, so mostly you don't really worry about it.  Isn't it the same way with breasts?

u r doing the right thing. if you "talk", your opponent can blame you for distracting him. I find that complete silence is even more irritating to your oppenent because they know you are being quiet on purpose. also, always stand or sit out of the oppenents line of vision. that gives then the creeps because they keep thinking you might bump them accidently, or ever so lightly on purpose. don't do anything that could bother your opponent. it will backfire.

Sometimes, an intelligent answer is, SILENCE.

I was always told by the old-timers that the QT meant the "quiet touch".  Doesn't really make sense to me, either.

As I understand it, it is sound that is broadcast over a PA system (Like in an office setting), that actually neutralizes the noise that is ocurring in said office environment. It doesn't drown it out, in fact one doesn't even notice it. It is projected at a frequency that obliterates the frequency of the noise already ocurring in the room. Its supposed to help in the work environment.

None, I find it distracting and can study much better in a quiet place.

the sounds of silence are the most interesting sounds that one can hear\nbecause when you haer silence you hear everything and nothing at the same time\nSILENCE can be stronger than anysounds or words that were ever made or spoken

hi, what I used to due was go to a quite place like a church or a place outside were their is very little noise, or noise at all. I would sit very still and breathe in and out very slowly.. Do the breathing for about ten seconds. Next think of only what you need to know for the test. Go over it in your mind, and relax. To me silence is golden it is a time when mind and body come together

Yes. It would be like saying things don't make sounds because deaf people can't hear it, It still makes sound, just no one is around to hear it.

White noise is normal sound made of waves of compression travelling through air, so if you are in total silence then you aren't hearing any noise, including white noise.  You might think that in absence of any external stimulation (any noise around you) you would experience hearing nothing yet with nothing around you still do.  The auditory cortex (part of your brain responsible for processing sound information) shows activity under fMRI inspection without any signal coming from the ear.\n\nAnother reason you might hear sound when nothing else is around is that your body makes noise (muscles, heart, blood-flow, organ function).  Try contracting your jaw tightly while in a quiet place,you can hear your own muscles working.\n\nExperience of sound without external stimulation can also be a result of tinnitus. This is caused by damage to the hairs in the ear which sense vibrations in the air (the sound) or to the nerves which carry sound signals to the brain, or even possibly by "central crosstalk" within the brain.

no, silence doesn't means yes. In my opinion, it kind of means no. When you don't automatically agree with someone on a topic, they just assume you really don't agree and are just too polite to not saying anything. If you really had no opinion or agreed, you would say so instead of keeping quiet.

It improves your connection to your senses plus makes you more aware of your surroundings.\n\nIt also eases the tension in you because of the positions you do and the silence you seldom get in this fast-paced world.\n\n:D

I believe the G is silent. I know someone named Nga, and it's pronounced "Naw"
