Our noisy years seem moments in the beingOf the eternal Silence.
There's something in a flying horse,There's something in a huge balloon.
While all the future, for thy purer soul,With "sober certainties" of love is blest.
The intellectual power, through words and things,Went sounding on, a dim and perilous way!
Wisdom married to immortal verse.
That every gift of noble originIs breathed upon by Hope's perpetual breath.
What shall I say to you? What can I sayBetter than silence is?
Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.
'Tis old, but true, still swine eat all the draff.
Silence is more eloquent than words.
Silence more musical than any song.
The silence that is in the starry sky.
I'll speak to thee in silence.
Silence is Love's own peculiar eloquence of bliss.
Well-timed silence hath more eloquence than speech.
