Better to remain silent and thought a fool, than to speak and remove all dought.

Tell 'em, "Because I'm always trying to hear what the voices in my head are saying. Shhh... did you hear that?" Hahaha!?????

Because you seem to be doing fine all on your own - you don't seem to need me

In what context?
Assuming police interrogation (what I call early Saturday mornings), it's "5th amendment, bitches!"
Mileage may vary depending on the context.

Thinking further on this.....the question is really a sly way to manipulate you....make you feel inferior because you have nothing to say. I'm positive you will speak up if something important catches your attention. Meanwhile,.....I think it is better to spend more time listening.

Not sure anyone has ever accused me of being quiet, yet, haha! But when someone does, perhaps it will be because I finally will have learned the wisdom that sometimes it's better just not to say anything.
I think I've learned that for the most part, but once in a while I will blurt out my thoughts without thinking. The older I get, the smarter I am about when to be quiet.
