A king is a thing men have made for their own sakes, for quietness sake. Just as in a family one man is appointed to buy the meat.
John Selden
Forbearance is the root of quietness and assurance forever.
Ieyasu Tokugawa
Oh, how great peace and quietness would he possess who should cut off all vain anxiety and place all his confidence in God.
Thomas Kempis
Prayer is commission. Out of the quietness with God, power is generated that turns the spiritual machinery of the world. When you pray, you begin to feel the sense of being sent, that the divine compulsion is upon you.
E. Stanley Jones
The quietness of his tone italicized the malice of his reply.
Truman Capote
With Jackson there was quiet solitude. Just to sit and look at the landscape. An inner quietness. After dinner, to sit on the back porch and look at the light. No need for talking. For any kind of communication.
Lee Krasner
