| The waters of Loch an Eilean were flat calm and the stillness of the air almost eerie. |
| A horrible yowling sound rent the air, a cacophony of dissonant notes in the cool morning stillness. |
| A gentle and lyrical andantino in triple time with a lilting rhythm and an emotional central section ended intimately, in stillness. |
| The stillness and quiet of the night made the place seem almost reverent, as if something long ago had happened here. |
| Sometimes at the close of day, when the lights have been dimmed, I sit in the stillness. |
| A sudden blast of discordant horns shattered the stillness that had settled over the killing fields. |
