Silence is a source of great strength.
- Lao Tzu
In silence you hear who you are becoming.
You create yourself.
- Jewel
True silence is the rest of the mind,
and is to the spirit what sleep is to the body,
nourishment and refreshment.
- William Penn
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

ReplyDeleteI have often heard it said that it is the silence between the notes which makes the music. An unusual but powerful perspective.
