“The speech we hear is an indication of that which we don't hear. It is a necessary avoidance, a violent, sly, and anguished or mocking smoke screen which keeps the other in its true place.

Let it fascinate and amaze.
Let it inspire the artist and the scientist. Let it shock the doubters.
Let it grant hope to the hopeless.
Let it begin in silence, and end with a loud bang.
Don’t be an open book - be mysterious. Be extraordinary, be undefinable, be a ball of fiery fire, and above all, grow in silence, and let your success do the talking.”

“Sonnet of Silence

I am the loudest when I am silent,
My lips are shut yet I speak treasures.
Speech without heart is nothing but noise,
Listen to my silence, you'll hear the universe.
Words spoken with mere lips reach nowhere,
For it's the heart that makes words alive.
Tell people who you are without saying a word,
Speak from your very core, they'll listen alright.
I repeat, silent people have the loudest hearts,
For when you speak less you get to listen more.
The more you listen the more you are heard,
The more you hear the more you get to grow.
Set the words on fire, let them all turn to ashes.
Tell people who you are without all the speeches.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Honor He Wrote: 100 Sonnets For Humans Not Vegetables

“Distance doesn't ruin relationships but silence does.”

“The Silence of the Final Goodbye

I knew you best from the silences,
The time and space in between,
The moment before our lips touched,
The way your arms went up in the air before you laughed,
The smile that we shared before we talked,
The redness on your face before your tears,
The sensation of your arms around me after you released the embrace.

The look you gave me before you walked away,
Nothing had ever been so painful,
No words could say what your eyes told me,
When I wake in the morning without you,
It’s the first thing I hear…

The silence of the final goodbye.”
― Jacqueline Simon Gunn

“The spiritual life goes through alternating phases in which God successively shows and hides himself, makes himself heard and is quiet. Prayer teaches us the subtleties of divine speech. Is God being silent, or are we not hearing him because our interior ear and our intellect are not accustomed to his language? The fruit of silence is learning to discern his voice, even though it always keeps its mystery.”
― Robert Cardinal Sarah

As you will, so will be.
As long as you are next to me,
Even your silence is tranquility.

I know it hurts like the dickens!
Yet every wound delivers valiance.
At your every whim I am your servant.
But to every wound you are your treatment.

Your trouble is my trouble.
Be not disheartened if the world frowns.
Clouds are nothing but herald of sunshine.
Pain of today is tomorrow's crown.

So I say, come, sit next to me.
As you will, so will be.”
