We need silence to be able to touch souls

It is in silence that you can become aware of the freedom to choose your thoughts, to rise above thought, and the power to either entertain your thoughts or to ignore thoughts and let them go. It is beautiful and refreshing to know that in silence you are present, aware, and conscious. 

Silence is also conversation. Ramana Maharshi

Silence is refreshment for the soul. Wynonna Judd

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

Silence is a source of great strength. Lao Tzu

I have learned silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet, strange, I am ungrateful to those teachers. Khalil Gibran

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

Only when you drink from the river of silence shall you indeed sing. And when you have reached the mountain top, then you shall begin to climb. And when the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance. Khalil Gibran

Silence is better than unmeaning words. Pythagoras
