Best Quotes about Silence
A good word is an easy obligation; but not to speak ill, requires only our silence, which costs nothing.
John Tillotson
Sometimes silence is not golden -- just yellow.
Silence is more musical than any song.
Christina Rossetti
We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature -- trees, flowers, grass -- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence. We need silence to be able to touch souls.
Mother Teresa
A man's silence is wonderful to listen to.
Thomas Hardy
The eternal silence of these infinite spaces fills me with dread.
Blaise Pascal
When the oak is felled the whole forest echoes with it fall, but a hundred acorns are sown in silence by an unnoticed breeze.
Carlyle, Thomas
The whisper of a pretty girl can be heard further than the roar of a lion.
Proverb, Arabian

A. A. Attanasio
There are grammatical errors even in his silence.
Stanislaw J. Lec
Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding. [Proverbs 17:28]

Colton, Charles Caleb
Silence is the great teacher, and to learn its lessons you must pay attention to it. There is no substitute for the creative inspiration, knowledge, and stability that come from knowing how to contact your core of inner silence. The great Sufi poet Rumi wrote, Only let the moving waters calm down, and the sun and moon will be reflected on the surface of your being.
Chopra, Deepak
An now the silences come in a single lifetime, in a single year... when species die, leaving a silent space in the world song that can never be filled.
Delint, Charles
There is a wide difference between speaking to deceive, and being silent to be impenetrable.
Voltaire
When little is done, little is said; silence is the mother of truth.
Disraeli, Benjamin
It is better to be silent, and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt.
Engel, Silvan
Silence is never more golden than when you hold it long enough to get all the facts before you speak.
Silence is as full of potential wisdom and wit as the unshown marble of great sculpture. The silent bear no witness against themselves.
Huxley, Aldous
An inability to stay quiet is one of the most conspicuous failings of mankind.
Bagehot, Walter
Whereof one cannot speak, thereof one must be silent.
Wittgenstein, Ludwig
Oppression can only survive through silence.
Carmen de Monteflores
Your hearts know in silence the secrets of the days and the nights.
Gibran, Kahlil
A wise old owl sat on an oak; The more he saw the less he spoke; The less he spoke the more he heard; Why aren't we like that wise old bird?
Richards, Edward Hersey
Silence is the ultimate weapon of power.
Gaulle, Charles De
Silence is as deep as eternity, speech a shallow as time.
Carlyle, Thomas
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. Tooting, howling, screeching, booming, crashing, whistling, grinding, and trilling bolster his ego. His anxiety subsides. His inhuman void spreads on like a gray vegetation.
Arp, Jean
The most profound statements are often said in silence.
Lynn Johnston
I often regret that I have spoken; never that I have been silent.
Syrus, Publilius
These be three silent things: The Falling snow... the hour before the dawn... the mouth of one just dead.
Crapsey, Adelaide
'Tis best to be silent in a bad cause.
Ovid
Do not the most moving moments of our lives find us all without words?
Marceau, Marcel
I don't know whether to keep silent and let people think I am ignorant or open my mouth and release all doubts.
I am better able to retract what I did not say than what I did.
Gabirol, Ibn
The deepest feeling always shows itself in silence; not in silence, but restraint.
The Pause; that impressive silence, that eloquent silence, that geometrically progressive silence which often achieves a desired effect where no combination of words, however so felicitous, could accomplish it.
Twain, Mark
Their silence is sufficient praise.
Terence
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.
Abraham Lincoln
Silence may be golden, but can you think of a better way to entertain someone than to listen to him?
Young, Brigham
He had occasional flashes of silence that made his conversation perfectly delightful.
Smith, Sydney
Words can sting like anything, but silence breaks the heart.
Mcginley, Phyllis
If you keep your mouth shut you will never put your foot in it.
O'Malley, Austin
Sticks and stones are hard on bones aimed with angry art. Words can sting like anything but silence breaks the heart.
Mcginley, Phyllis
I have often repented speaking, but never of holding my tongue.
Xenocrates of Chalcedon
Learn to get in touch with silence within yourself, and know that everything in this life has purpose. There are no mistakes, no coincidences, all events are blessings given to us to learn from.
KuBler-Ross, Elisabeth
A fair request should be followed by the deed in silence.
Dante Alighieri
There is no need to go to India or anywhere else to find peace. You will find that deep place of silence right in your room, your garden or even your bathtub.
Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
