“When words are scarce they are seldom spent in vain.”

Simplified Meaning:
When people don't talk a lot, the words they choose to use are usually very important and meaningful. Imagine a wise old person who doesn't speak much. When they finally say something, everyone listens carefully because their words often carry valuable advice. This shows that speaking less can make what you say more impactful. For example, in a meeting, if someone who usually stays quiet suddenly shares their opinion, it often has more weight and consideration. You can use this idea in your life by being thoughtful about what you say, making sure your words truly matter, and people will respect and listen to you more.
