Quiet Quotes

I seem to be attracted to the quiet, brooding type. But not too brooding. Too brooding can be narcissistic. Or psychotic Picture Quote #1

I’m very quiet. I can go a whole week without talking, so doing interviews is really awkward for me! Picture Quote #1

I love theatre. It’s far more satisfying than film. Sometimes there’s a collective sigh from the audience, or it’s so quiet you can hear a pin drop. I couldn’t believe how easy acting was when there’s an audience; after a few previews I almost couldn’t do it without one Picture Quote #1

The songs, if I write alone in a room, end up being a little more quiet, a little more subdued. If I play with other musicians or percussive instruments, it might end up being a little more upbeat Picture Quote #1

The voice of wisdom is inherent within us and willing to guide us when we stop to listen. Of course, there are times when we feel we’ve been still as stone, and the still, small voice is still too quiet to hear. When this happens, the challenge is to practice quieting your mind anyway. Stopping and asking, quieting and listening, trusting and waiting. Waiting is difficult but worth the effort because a quiet, uncluttered mind is a natural antenna for whispers of wisdom from within Picture Quote #1

Wisdom is not book learning but, rather, a quality or state of knowing what is true or right coupled with the judgment to discern constructive action. Wisdom is the insight and intuition contained in the proverbial still, small voice that only a quiet mind can hear and know Picture Quote #1

Every man is rich or poor according to the proportion between his desires and his enjoyments; any enlargement of wishes is therefore equally destructive to happiness with the diminution of possession, and he that teaches another to long for what he never shall obtain is no less an enemy to his quiet than if he had robbed him of part of his patrimony Picture Quote #1

If you keep focusing, gradually thoughts will become quieter and quieter, gradually the images will disappear from the mind. What is happening is the kundalini energy begins to radiate and rise, it causes the mind to be quiet Picture Quote #1

Those who experiment on animals should never be able to quiet their own conscience by telling themselves that these cruelties have a worthy aim Picture Quote #1

For discovering one’s true inner nature, I think one should try to take out some time, with quiet and relaxation, to think more inwardly and to investigate the inner world. That may help Picture Quote #1

I was a terrible history student. They taught me history as if it were a visit to a wax museum or to the land of the dead. I was over twenty before I discovered that the past was neither quiet nor mute Picture Quote #1

Keeping quiet means being without any techniques, effort or intention to meditate... not following the thought stream Picture Quote #1

I have a terrible image in my mind of a cow going to slaughter. There’s not a lot of fight in them. Pigs, they’d squeal and thrash around. They’d fight. It’s almost as if cows don’t know they have a choice. Not that they don’t panic, but they do so in a quiet way Picture Quote #1

When you meditate, go into the solitude of a forest, or a quiet corner, and enter into the chamber of your heart. And always keep your power of discrimination awake Picture Quote #1

He who, though dressed in fine apparel, exercises tranquillity, is quiet, subdued, restrained, chaste, and has ceased to find fault with all other beings, he indeed is an ascetic Picture Quote #1

I spent more hours than I can count a quiet witness to the highly mannered, manifold expressions of life that grace our planet. It is something so bright, loud, weird and delicate as to stupefy the senses Picture Quote #1

I think we’re in a quiet time right now. luxury can be in the fit Picture Quote #1

Our desire is to grow so quiet and to work so deeply that we participate fully in the mystery in which we’re embedded. When we manage to do that we feel as if we have merged with the universe; for the duration of that experience we feel immortal Picture Quote #1

I’d like to credit my speed to my grandfather. But he was also a quiet player. He didn’t talk much. He just went out there on the field and did his own thing Picture Quote #1

Sweet are the thoughts that savor of content: the quiet mind is richer than a crown Picture Quote #1

You must find your own quiet center of life, and write from that to the world Picture Quote #1

I kept quiet, but the knowledge gathered like a storm. I could see the future: My father wasn’t coming back. And this one fact seemed to point to other facts and others still: Love frays and humans fail, time passes, eras end Picture Quote #1

Sleeping as quiet as death, side by wrinkled side, toothless, salt and brown, like two old kippers in a box Picture Quote #1

The magic is as wide as a smile and as narrow as a wink, loud as laughter and quiet as a tear, tall as a tale and deep as emotion. So strong, it can lift the spirit. So gentle, it can touch the heart. It is the magic that begins the happily ever after Picture Quote #1

I think everyone is equally psychic. But through the practice of meditation, you learn to make your thoughts quiet and become more aware of your innate psychic abilities Picture Quote #1

I learnt the lesson on nonviolence from my wife, when I tried to bend her to my will. Her determined resistance to my will on the one hand, and her quiet submission to the suffering my stupidity involved on the other, ultimately made me ashamed of myself and cured me of my stupidity in thinking that I was born to rule over her Picture Quote #1

Visual artists choreograph dances for the eyes, guiding visual journeys in specific ways. But when presented with little or nothing, the journeys of the eyes become erratic and finally still their restless searching. The eye and mind and heart grow quiet, come to rest, and begin to understand their own functioning more deeply Picture Quote #1

I cannot be a placard waver for every campaign; that’s why I have mostly kept quiet about gay marriage Picture Quote #1

I personally like the idea of shellfish aquaculture. These are animals that stay quiet, they stay where you put them, and they clean up the water Picture Quote #1

A quiet worker but a very productive one and a great one for the state of Georgia Picture Quote #1
