Minute Silence

Famous quotes containing the words minute and/or silence:

“That’s why I quit and took up writing poetry instead.
It’s clean, it’s relaxing, it doesn’t squirt juice all over
Something you were certain of a minute ago and now your own face
Is a stranger and no one can tell you it’s true. Hey, stupid!”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

“Keep silence for the most part, and speak only when you must, and then briefly.”
—Epictetus (c. 50–120)
