Too often the strong, silent man is silent only because he does not know what to say, and is reputed strong only because he has remained silent.

Peter is an old friend. I'm heartbroken, but he's also a tough guy. I'm counting on him getting through this very difficult passage.

Peter's fear of the animals which were shown him was probably not a directly conditioned fear.

Silences make the real conversations between friends. Not the saying but the never needing to say is what counts.

I've always been a quiet guy.

If I cannot understand my friend's silence, I will never get to understand his words.

He who speaks without modesty will find it difficult to make his words good.

Silence is also conversation.

It would have been more comfortable to remain silent.

He who does not understand your silence will probably not understand your words.
