Soon silence will have passed into legend. Man has turned his back on silence. Day after day he invents machines and devices that increase noise and distract humanity from the essence of life, contemplation, meditation.

Arp, Jean

Seneca
Not to ask is not be denied.
Dryden, John
Absolute silence leads to sadness. It is the image of death.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques
