the quiet place project

callum dempsey leachi always tell my closest friends that words have the power to change the world and everything in it. real words. not political drafts across pen and page and not philosophy or physics trying to entangle time and space. real words can change the world, peoples hearts. save lives...
i wish more people could see that. but maybe now they might believe me.

charlotte reznickabsolutely beautiful and inspiring. i will share with all the kids/teens i know (and their parents).

gavin nguyeninspire me to take a nice walk in the park that's right behind my garden gates... so easy to get there, but only now i decide to do this. thanks.

anna goodmana friend sent me this on a day that i was really struggling, and i would just like to say that it changed my life. i was brought to such a realization of where my life had progressed to, and how out of sync i was with what really mattered. i was so surprised and amazed when i entered the quiet place, and it was such a blessing to me. thank you so, so much for producing a space where we can forget about everything else and just be quiet for a little.

ashleenicole martinezthis is amazing.. never experienced anything like this, never felt so at peace.. thank you. -ashleenicole♥

josh lamplrun, laugh, fall, cry, love, hurt, run, jump, skip, ride a bike, see a movie, punch a wall, draw a picture, take a picture, go to a concert, play an instrument, work a shitty job, scrape your knees, get dirty, drink a beer, smoke some weed, smell, look, watch, breath...live.

jesse hacheyvery effective experience, amitay. :) that was very, very well done, many thanks to you.

din lantion brauliothank u so much for making us realize that we needed a simple though brief, quiet time and place. and i thank my dear daughter for sharing this to me just when i needed it most...

dominique lanemost amazing thing ever. i will gladly spread the word to as many people as possible ♥ thank you

megan marie hoffmanthank you so much for all that you've done. i hope that this continues to spread and that you are as blessed by this as we all are :)

terry constancei know this is probably said often.. but reading this really made me realize how much time i've wasted, worrying about things that were so pointless. i thank whoever made this, truly, because it's made me view my whole life from a new perspective.

pia maxine-cosometimes i forget how it is to feel peaceful.
i needed that a lot, thanks.

kali harkeyjust wanna say thanks for creating this site. it's a good reminder to just forget it all from time to time :) so thank you!

jordan smiththis is all usually mushy stuff for me, but i can't deny it was calming.

alex chesleynot only are things like this a beautiful thing, but this is almost like a meditative break. as a buddhist just starting engineering college at 18, it's hard to remember to sit down and mediate, if only for a few minutes... thank you for this little project to remind the world to stop and just give a minute of their time to sit, relax, and be calm.

deb zinggthank you...there is very little quiet in my life and i fully enjoyed this. ♥

yayly cespedesi cried ♥.♥ sometimes so many things just need to leave your beautiful head :3

anastasia schallyi do not know what i would have done. i have always been a deep thinker, but this put me in a whole new position. i have had the tab open for an hour now, just peacefully sitting in my room. thank you quiet place . this will now be my homepage , and a site i will visit every day. ♥

sanah jivanii just wanted to let you know that i really needed this. thanks for creating something like it.

marco alessandro floresi just finished entering the quiet place. it was a brilliant idea. thanks for those 30 seconds of calm.

jason padvoracwow, this was absolutely amazing. thank you for creating this -- and i can't wait to see what you do next.

jonathan turnerit's nice to go here every once and a while and realize just how much social networking and media impacts our lives and how the smallest things that happen on these sites really get to us. who are we really in today's world? are we us or are we what the world thinks we are. are we acting like we normally would in real life or are we acting out of fear of what might be posted on the social media sites? give it some thought, and go to the quiet place for a minute.

jan pelletierthe quiet place is so peaceful....try it. not a scam, just peace. do everything it says, and then share. :)

ray nicko balatbatthank you. i need this. everytime, i'm stressed, i'm visiting this.

riley briesei thought, eh. i might as well see what it's about.
and i tell you now, i thought it was a joke to start with.
but i kept reading, and with the music and what it said it helped me realize something. so thank you, whoever you are. i really appreciate you putting in the effort to do something so small, that will change people so greatly. i know it's changed me.
