Our noisy years seem moments in the beingOf the eternal Silence.
Hope smiled when your nativity was cast,Children of Summer!
Wrongs unredressed, or insults unavenged.
Wisdom married to immortal verse.
Pleasure is spread through the earthIn stray gifts to be claimed by whoever shall find.
Nuns fret not at their convent's narrow room.
There was speech in their dumbness, language in their very gesture.
Wise Men say nothing in dangerous times.
Silence, beautiful voice.
Silence more musical than any song.
Three Silences there are: the first of speech,The second of desire, the third of thought.
Silence best speaks the mind.
There was silence deep as death;And the boldest held his breath,For a time.
The saying is true "The empty vessel makes the greatest sound."
Silence sleeping on a waste of ocean.
Silence is Love's own peculiar eloquence of bliss.
