Silence Quotes

Oh, Mrs. Dalloway. Always giving parties to cover the silence.

In silence easy to be born again.

Meaningful Quotes

I wanna rock your silence
My love is timeless

Read between the lines -
No words just vibrations.
Don't ignore hidden desires,
Pay attention -
You're playing with fire.
Silence must be heard,
Noise should be observed,
The time has come to learn...

Enigma

Silence Must Be Heard

"Fools" said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you."
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence

So I scream
Just to break the silence.

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the sign said: "The words of the prophets
are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls
And whispered in the sounds of silence..."

Sometimes silence can seem so loud...

Copy quote

R.Kelly

I Believe I Can Fly

And I realized that perhaps at no time in my life had I ever known silence. Always there had been something that had made some sort of noise — the chirring of a lone insect in the quiet of a summer noon, or the rustle of a leaf. Even in the dead of night there would have been the creaking of the timbers in the house, the murmur of the furnace, the slight keening of a wind that ran along the eaves.

Clifford D. Simak

All Flesh is Grass

Slow down.
Give me some time.
Turn down
The volume of your cry.
Let's take time to find
A place without violence.
Let's listen and hear
The true meaning of silence.

Copy quote

O. Torvald

Time

Leave home, feel the wind blow 'cause it's colder here inside in silence

Outdoors, a bird singing is fine. Patsy Cline is not.
Outdoors, the din of traffic is bad enough. Adding Chopin's Piano Concerto in E Minor is not making the situation any better

Where is that silence you promised me?
Why is that distance so close to me?
Why is your violence still hurting me?
Why are your eyes avoiding me?

Silence is also a sound.

Copy quote

Akira Yamaoka

Silence you lost me, no chance for one more day

El perdón

Ahí te dejo
Donde me dejaste sola,
Donde entre espejos y sombras
Se convierten en siglos las horas.
Sin derecho a saber ningunos motivos
Siente como vibra con gritos
El silencio en tus oídos.
