Silence is golden, so stifle thyself.
ARCHIE BUNKER, All in the Family (1971)
Silence is power. The power of the unknown, the unspoken. It can be a blessing, a welcome moment of peace. Or it can be evil. The trick is to know when to welcome it and when to be very afraid.
BETTY ANN, Are You Afraid of the Dark?, "The Tale of the Silent Servant" (1994)
A sign of a good relationship is being comfortable in silence.
LYNETTE SCAVO, Desperate Housewives, "What Would We Do Without You?" (2007)
Birth and death-they silence us all in the end!
HORACE RUMPOLE, Rumpole of the Bailey, "Rumpole and the Age for Retirement" (1979)
There is the silence of the oceans and the unending silence of space. There is the welcome silence of serenity and the everlasting silence of death. A cry for help is lost in the shrill noise of the world, but the faintest of whispers, when spoken in silence, can resonate across the universe.
THE CONTROL VOICE, The Outer Limits, "The Message" (1995)
When in doubt, remain silent.
HAMISH, Alice in Wonderland (2010)
You have the grand gift of silence...it makes you quite invaluable as a companion!
SHERLOCK HOLMES, Sherlock Holmes (2009)
Uncomfortable silences. Why do we feel it's necessary to yak about bullshit in order to be comfortable?...That's when you know you've found somebody special. When you can just shut...up for a minute and comfortably enjoy the silence.
MIA WALLACE, Pulp Fiction (1994)
Silence best answer when uncertain.
CHARLIE CHAN, Charlie Chan in Shanghai (1935)
