SILENCE

Be still and know that I am God.

-Psalm 46:10

We need to find God, and He cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature

- trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence;

see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence...

We need silence to be able to touch souls.

-Mother Teresa

Everything has its wonders, even darkness and silence, and I learn, whatever state I may be in, therein to be content.

-Helen Keller

In silence and quiet the devout soul advances in virtue and learns the hidden truths of Scripture.

-St. John of the Cross
