  Comments:
Saw in 静と動 today, but can of course stand alone. (Seems esp. used in the expression though, hence link.)
Split “stillness (no movement)” from “quiet (no noise)”, as per koj – obviously related, but feels distinct. Also, contrast with 静か, which is (IME) much more frequently used for “quiet, gentle” rather than “stillness” (also has that sense, but secondary).
