1 " I am a restlessness inside a stillness inside a restlessness. "
― Dodie Smith , I Capture the Castle
2 " In suffocating the voice of conscience, passion carries with itself a restlessness of the body and the senses: it is the restlessness of the " external man." When the internal man has been reduced to silence, then passion, once it has been given freedom of action, so to speak, exhibits itself as an insistent tendency to satisfy the senses and the body. "
3 " Creation is always an act of affirmation, a lust for life or activity, a restlessness accompanied by art. That art is what pleases and invigorates and mystifies me. "
― Jean Moreau, Abbey of Kervennec, France
4 " Dreams and restless thoughts came flowing to him from the river, from the twinkling stars at night, from the sun's melting rays. Dreams and a restlessness of the soul came to him. "
― Hermann Hesse , Siddhartha
