Quote by Henry David Thoreau

Silence alone is worthy to be heard.

Silence alone is worthy to be heard.

Summary

This quote suggests that silence possesses its own significance and value in communication. It emphasizes the idea that sometimes saying nothing at all can hold more meaning or power than speaking. Silence has the ability to convey deep emotions, create connections, and foster understanding without the need for words. It implies that a moment of silence can speak volumes and often has a unique ability to enrich and impact a situation, making it just as deserving of attention and appreciation as spoken words.

I would say to the House, as I said to those who have joined this Government: I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat. You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word: It is victory, victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory, however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no survival.

Sir Winston Churchill

All authority is quite degrading. It degrades those who exercise it, and degrades those over whom it is exercised. When it is violently, grossly, and cruelly used, it produces a good effect by creating, or at any rate bringing out, the spirit of revolt and individualism that is to kill it. When it is used with a certain amount of kindness, and accompanied by prizes and rewards, it is dreadfully demoralising. People, in that case, are less conscious of the horrible pressure that is being put on them, and so go through their lives in a sort of coarse comfort, like petted animals, without ever realising that they are probably thinking other people's thoughts, living by other people's standards, wearing practically what one may call other people's second-hand clothes, and never being themselves for a single moment.
