“The more you say, the less people remember”
— Democritus

Simplified Meaning:
When you talk a lot, people often remember less of what you said. Imagine you’re telling a long story to a friend with many details. They might forget important parts because it’s too much information to keep in mind. A shorter message is usually clearer and sticks better. This advice is useful in many situations, such as giving a presentation or writing an email. By keeping it brief and to the point, you make it easier for others to remember what’s important.
