Silence Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Silence

1.
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

2.
Their silence is sufficient praise.
Terence

3.

Eliot, George

4.

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

Herder, Johann Gottfried Von

When little is done, little is said; silence is the mother of truth.
