Quote by William
Wordsworth
English
Poet
*
Silence
is the absolute poise or balance of the body, mind and spirit,
The
man who preserves his selfhood is ever calm
and
unshaken by the storms of existence...
If
you ask him: "What is silence?" he will answer:
"It
is the Great Mystery. The holy silence is His voice."
If
you ask: "what are the fruits of silence?" he will
say:
"
They are self-control, true courage or endurance,
patience,
dignity and reverence.
Silence
is the cornerstone of character."
