About This Quote
The price of silence is too high to pay. Don’t you agree? People pay a high price for silence. They pay with their health, their relationships and their own sense of self-worth. People who are quiet are generally considered to be weak.
In fact, some people get so quiet that they don’t even realize that they’re being rude! All the while, they’re going along in life acting like they have no feelings at all. The truth of the matter is that silence is a heavy burden. It weighs on a person and chokes them of life itself.
No one wants to be seen as weak or without feeling, yet this is precisely what happens when we don’t show our true selves. We must learn from Nelson Mandela and stand up for ourselves when we feel oppressed by silence.
