Speech wants to conquer others; silence helps conquer oneself
Speech demands respect, silence commands it
Speech is self -expression; silence is self-experience
Speech is mind bound, silence is soul bound
Speech asserts ego; silence effaces it
Speech dissipates ego; silence conserves it
Speech is human; silence is divine
Speech receives appreciation; silence receives adoration
Great works are inspired by speech but written in silence
Life is a flower; silence is its fragrance
We surround ourselves with noise, because we are uncomfortable with silence.
We fill our lives with distractions, because we are reluctant to confront.
