Much unhappiness has come from things left unsaid

Leo Tolstoy

In the world of diplomacy, some things are better left unsaid.

Lincoln Chafee

Poetry teaches us things that cannot be learned in prose, such as certain kinds of irony or the importance of the unsaid. The most important element of any poem is the part that is left unsaid. So the poetry frames the experience that lies beyond naming.

Sam Hamill

All of life like a series of tableaux, and in the living we missed so much, hid so much, left so much undone and unsaid.

Anna Quindlen

One doesn't have to pursue unhappiness. It comes to you. You come into the world screaming. You cry when you're born because your lungs expand. You breathe. I think that's really kind of significant. You come into the world crying, and it's a sign that you're alive.

Jamaica Kincaid

Some things need to be left unsaid.

Simone Elkeles

There are things I back off from trying to talk about, you know. Particularly my own work. Also, there may be things better left unsaid. At times I'd much rather talk about other (people's) work.

Garry Winogrand

The duty of the words is to say just as much as the music has left unsaid and no more.

Ralph Vaughan Williams

All our media are given over to things that are better left unsaid.

Ralph Caplan

There's a universe inside your head, constellations of the things you left unsaid.

Lauren Aquilina

The whole movement of happiness, unhappiness, happiness, unhappiness, could be called unhappiness. You're suffering because your state of mind is in flux, moving back and forth. The ego's happiness is really a form of suffering, because it cannot live without unhappiness.

Eckhart Tolle

Any good movie is filled with secrets. If a director doesn't leave anything unsaid, it's a lousy picture. If a picture's unsaid, it's a lousy picture. If a picture is good, it's mysterious, with things unsaid.
