"To listen to the silence, wherever you..." - Quote by Eckhart Tolle

“The equivalent of external noise is the inner noise of thinking. The equivalent of external silence is inner stillness.”

“You need to learn to be with the suffering that inevitably arises in your life.”

“The chess master says nothing, other than moving the silient chess piece.”

“History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people.”

“It"s good to keep wide-open ears and listen to what everybody else has to say, but when you come to make a decision, you have to weigh all of what you"ve heard on its own, and place it where it belongs, and come to a decision for yourself; you"ll never regret it. But if you form the habit of taking what someone else says about a thing without checking it out for yourself, you"ll find that other people will have you hating your friends and loving your enemies.”

“Inexperienced leaders are quick to lead before knowing anything about the people they intend to lead. But mature leaders listen, learn and then lead.”
