If you are talking about sheet music, there are a number of ways to know when to stop. If there is a rest (like quarter rest, half rest, etc.) then of course you're supposed to stop and be quiet for that amount of beats. However, there are other ways, such as the lift (apostrophe mark) which is like a breath. There is also the caesura, or "rail road tracks," where you look to the conductor to know when to begin playing again.
