"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 Theresa

"It is better to do one's own duty, however defective it may be, than to follow the duty of another, however well one may perform it. He who does his duty as his own nature reveals it, never sins."

-Lao Tzu

"He who knows how to be aggressive, and yet remains patient, becomes a receptacle for all of Nature's lessons."

-Lao Tzu
