Happiness Quote by Dhan Gopal Mukerji
““Have you ever heard silence? It is not a stillness which is the absence of sound. Silence is not empty, it is full of content. It is like the sky―intangible yet containing the stars, the sun, the moon, and all existence. That is silence and it is full of tongues.””

![“If ever you do go back, what is it you want of Evesham?" "Do I know? [...] The silence, it might be ... or the stillness. To have no more running to do ... to have arrived, and have no more need to run. The appetite changes. Now I think it would be a beautiful thing to be still.” quote by Ellis Peters](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/6a9/ellis-peters-8392_appetite_if-ever-you-do-go-back-what-is-it-you-wa_645953.jpg)
