SilenceIt has a sound, a fullness. It's heavy with sigh of tree, and space between breaths. It's ripe with pause between birdsongand crash of surf. It's golden they say. But no one tells us it's addictive.

About This Quote

Silence is a natural human state of being. We all go silent for different reasons at different times. For some of us, the silence helps us think it over, plan our next step, or contemplate something important. For others, it's a time of reflection.

Others are more emotional, and are used to looking inward for answers. Still others are more creative, and they benefit from the silence to muse on concepts or music. The concept of silence is one worth exploring because it bears on the nature of thoughts and feelings.
