“I have naturally formed the habit of restraining my thoughts. A thoughtless word hardly ever escaped my tongue or pen. Experience has taught me that silence is part of the spiritual discipline of a votary of truth. We find so many people impatient to talk. All this talking can hardly be said to be of any benefit to the world. It is so much waste of time. My shyness has been in reality my shield and buckler. It has allowed me to grow. It has helped me in my discernment of truth.”
― Susan Cain, Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking

“Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other’s eyes for an instant?”
― Henry David Thoreau

“Worrying is like paying a debt you don't owe.”
― Mark Twain
