Namaste,

Is it okay to say, He had no choice other than to keep quiet.

Can we use 'other than' in this way?

Thanks in advance.

How about using 'keeping quiet' ?

I think, it'd work as well.

Thank you, and one other thing, if you don't mind. Is this variation acceptable: He had no other choice than to keep quiet/ He had no other job than to wait on tables.

All of the suggested variations are okay.
