Quotemeal: Mar. 17th, 1946

Sunday, March 17, 1946

"We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature — trees, flowers, grass — grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls."
— Mother Teresa
