One Quiet Night is a solo album by Pat Metheny, released in 2003. The album was recorded in one night and provides a raw sample of Metheny's skill on acoustic and baritone guitars. It features interpretations of Jesse Harris' song "Don't Know Why" and Gerry & The Pacemakers's "Ferry Cross the Mersey".
The record was co-produced by Steven Rodby. It received public and critical acclaim, particularly for Metheny's nuanced performance, and won the 2004 Grammy Award for Best New Age Album.

Famous quotes containing the words quiet and/or night:
“You must not count much upon what I can do or learn in New York.... Everything there disappoints me but the crowd; rather, I was disappointed with the rest before I came. I have no eyes for their churches, and what else they find to brag of. Though I know but little about Boston, yet what attracts me, in a quiet way, seems much meaner and more pretending than there,—libraries, pictures, and faces in the street. You don’t know where any respectability inhabits.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Around, the night drops swiftly down
Its veils; does not condemn
Or praise the different actions done.
The hour that strikes across the town
Caresses all and injures none
As sleep approaches them.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
