It is never my custom to use words lightly. If twenty-seven years in prison have done anything to us, it was to use the silence of solitude to make us understand how precious words are and how real speech is in its impact on the way people live and die.

Only in silence I find myself. Life in the city is so hectic that you lose the right perspective. It's important to know that our biggest resources are in our heart.

Never rush an emotion; everything in life has a rhythm, it is the pauses and silences that speak the truth.

Too often the strong, silent man is silent only because he does not know what to say, and is reputed strong only because he has remained silent.

The trees, the flowers, the plants grow in silence. The stars, the sun, the moon move in silence. Silence gives us a new perspective.

The empty vessel makes the loudest sound.
