Good morning = bearing witness to silence
“Nature’s silence is its one remark, and every flake of world is a chip off that old mute and immutable block. The Chinese say that we live in the world of the ten thousand things. Each of the ten thousand things cries out to us precisely nothing.”
“You do not have to sit outside in the dark. If, however, you want to look at the stars, you will find that darkness is necessary. But the stars neither require nor demand it.”
“ . . . Silence is not our heritage but our destiny; we live where we want to live.”
“The silence is all there is. It is the alpha and the omega.”
