Famous quotes containing the word silent:

    “Discipline must come through liberty.... We do not consider an individual disciplined only when he has been rendered as artificially silent as a mute and as immovable as a paralytic. He is an individual annihilated, not disciplined.”
    —Maria Montessori (1870–1952)

    “Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of earth,
    And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings ...
    And while with silent lifting mind I’ve trod
    The high, untrespassed sanctity of space,
    Put out my hand and touched the face of God.”
    —John Gillespie Magee (c. 1922–1941)

    “In all the silent manliness of grief.”
    —Oliver Goldsmith (1728–1774)
