How long should I meditate and how do I quiet my thoughts?

Silence, no thoughts, and slowly build up time

Meditation comes by becoming silent and thinking of nothing. Meditate at least an hour daily, building up slowly from 10, 15, 20 minutes.

How will meditation happen? Become silent. Do not think of anything at all. Be free of disturbance. Is that possible? Yes, it is possible.
