And silence sounds no worse than cheersAfter death has stopped the ears.

Summary

This quote suggests that silence is not necessarily a negative or terrible thing. Once someone has passed away and can no longer hear applause (cheers), the absence of sound (silence) becomes equal to or even preferable to any form of noise. It implies that in death, the idea of silence becomes peaceful and comforting, removing the potential for any unpleasant or overwhelming sounds.
