If it is language that makes us human, one half of language is to listen.

Silence can exist without speech, but speech can not live without silence.

Listen to the speech of others. Listen even more to their silence.

To pray is to listen to the revelations of nature, to the meaning of events.

To listen to music is to listen also to silence, and to find the stillness deepened and enriched.
