Silence is more eloquent proverb

 The pause-that impressive silence, that eloquent silence, that geometrically progressive silence, which often achieves a desired effect where no combination of words, howsoever felicitous, could accomplish it
  Mark Twain

 Silence is more eloquent than words
  Thomas Carlyle

 The most eloquent way I could offer my respect is with a moment of silence.

 The silence when they do not want to tell you the facts: Discrete Silence. The silence when they do not intend to take any action: Stubborn Silence. The silence when... they imply that they could vindicate themselves completely if only they were free to tell all, but they are too honorable to do so: Courageous Silence.
  Antony Jay

 Despots play their part in the works of thinkers. Fettered words are terrible words. The writer doubles and trebles the power of his writing when a ruler imposes silence on the people. Something emerges from that enforced silence, a mysterious fullness which filters through and becomes steely in the thought. Repression in history leads to conciseness in the historian, and the rocklike hardness of much celebrated prose is due to the tempering of the tyrant.
  Victor Hugo

 emptiness is only a disguise for an intimacy of God's, that God's silence, the eerie stillness, is filled by the Word without words, by Him who is above all names, by Him who is all in all. And his silence is telling us that He is here.

 Not only is your story worth telling, but it can be told in words so painstakingly eloquent that it becomes a song.
  Gloria Naylor

 Not only is your story worth telling, but it can be told in words so painstakingly eloquent that it becomes a song.
  Gloria Naylor

 He wasn't trying to impress anyone, simply being himself, making him naturally pe𝑥y. Silence is not a thing we make; it is something into which we enter. It is always there. We talk about keeping silence. We keep only that which is precious. Silence is precious, for it is of God. In silence all God's acts are done; in silence alone can his voice be heard and his word spoken.

 The eloquent man is he who is no eloquent speaker, but who is inwardly drunk with a certain belief
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

 Great is truth, but still greater, from a practical point of view, is silence about truth. By simply not mentioning certain subjects... totalitarian propagandists have influenced opinion much more effectively than they could have by the most eloquent denunciations.
  Aldous Huxley

 Silence within silence, no words within blank space, nothing on blank page, less within the void.
  Jalal ad-Din Rumi

 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.

 Myth is the hidden part of every story, the buried part, the region that is still unexplored because there are as yet no words to enable us to get there. Myth is nourished by silence as well as by words.
  Italo Calvino

 Lying is done with words and also with silence.
  Adrienne Rich
