+**--quiet**|**--hush**::
+    Override the default console log.  By default, Tor starts out logging
+    messages at level "notice" and higher to the console.  It stops doing so
+    after it parses its configuration, if the configuration tells it to log
+    anywhere else.  You can override this behavior with the **--hush** option,
+    which tells Tor to only send warnings and errors to the console, or with
+    the **--quiet** option, which tells Tor not to log to the console at all.
 
 Other options can be specified either on the command-line (--option
     value), or in the configuration file (option value or option "value").
