Pablo Neruda is in favour of stillness or silence. We remain still and quiet for sometime. On the other hand, total inactivity is a permanent suspension of work. It is just like death. 'Stillness' should not be Confused with 'total inactivity'. Life goes on as usual. There can’t be anything like total inactivity. The poet refuses to associate with death or deal with it.
