Notes from Wikiquote
They conform the things of this life to the life beyond. | Because of this, indeed, converse ceases there | and one is united to the One who is above word and silence. | In this also they are careful now | causing the tongue, minister of the word, to cease | and commanding with authority not to be anxious to speak without necessity | except for stirrings in prayer and the psalms, to help bind the mind. | 1.11, p. 18
