Not a word does the cloud-kissing mountain say, yet everyone looks up at her in admiration.
        Not a moment would the fly stop humming, yet everyone      means to keep it silent forever.
Silence is not weakness in a debate. Instead it is respect to the opponent and authority in silence.
Silence sometimes is more expressive than the words.
To a broken heart silence is not indifference.
It is tender sunshine to the flower and quiet soil to the seed.
Silence is just the moment between the sight of lightening and the roar of thunder.
Don't be a cicada in summer. Be the plant growing in silence.
Silence is gold.

高耸入云的大山一言不发，可谁不带着敬佩的神情仰首静观？
           出入尘土的苍蝇嗡嗡地叫个不停，可谁不想一拍子叫它永远沉默？
       争辩中的沉默不是软弱。相反，那是对辩手和权威无言的尊敬。
                              有时候沉默的内涵比言语更多。
   破碎之心面前的沉默不是麻木。
                    那是爱抚的阳光在关照鲜花，
                                        那是静默的土壤在孕育种子。
               沉默是从见到眩目的闪电到听到动地惊雷之前的间歇。
    别学那夏日里噪聒的知了。要学那默默生长的万物。
                                          沉默是金。
