If there is one sound the follows the march of humanity, it is the scream.

About This Quote

The sound of a human voice, a scream, is a powerful thing. It can be an expression of pain, frustration, anger, fear and even joy. But it is also a cry for help. A scream can make you feel uneasy or startle you.

It might cause you to re-evaluate the situation and wonder what’s going on around you. The sound of a scream can bring about one of two things: an immediate reaction to the scream or just as quickly, a desire to follow it up with silence to hear what else there might be to say.
