In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.

We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the hateful words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people.

Silence gives us a new way of looking at something.

[Talkies] are spoiling the oldest art in the world - the art of pantomime. They are ruining the great beauty of silence.

Sound has spoiled the most ancient of the world's arts, the art of pantomime, and has canceled out the great beauty that is silence.

I believe in the discipline of silence, and could talk for hours about it.
