Quiet

Famous quotes containing the word quiet:

    The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man’s abode; the snow melts before its door as early in the spring. I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there, and have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    A quiet fool can go undiscovered for a long time.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    O Death, rock me asleep,
    Bring me to quiet rest,
    Let pass my weary guiltless ghost
    Out of my careful breast.
    George Boleyn (d. 1536)
