The only life that matters is in your mind. The only truth is the one that lives invisibly, that waits even after you close the book. Silence, too, is a kind of music. Silence will last.

About This Quote

The only life that matters is in your mind. The only truth is the one that lives invisibly, that waits even after you close the book. Silence, too, is a kind of music. Silence will last.

You should not be afraid to explore the unknown parts of yourself during your life. You should not be afraid to explore the unknown parts of yourself either when you are in your dreams or while you are sleeping. Find out what other people are saying about you while you are awake and what they really think of you when they are awake.

It is not necessary to believe in anything while you are alive but it is important to find out what people really think about you after you die.
