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

They are dragged to the withered bracken by the load, And they seem not to break; though once they are bowed So low for long, they never right themselves. ↗
