SOLITUDE, STILLNESS AND SILENCE
Not merely an absence of noise, Real Silence begins
when a reasonable being withdraws from the noise
in order to find peace and order
in his inner sanctuary.
Peter Minard
True silence is the rest of the mind;
it is to the spirit what sleep is to the body,
nourishment and refreshment.
William Penn
Solitude is a silent storm that breaks down all
our dead branches; yet it sends our living roots
deeper into the living heart of the living earth.
Kahlil Gibran
Only in quiet waters do things mirror themselves undistorted.
Only in a quiet mind is adequate perception of the world.
Hans Margolius
We all have within us a center of stillness
surrounded by silence.
Dag Hammerskjold
To the mind that is still,
The whole universe surrenders.
Chuang Tzu
