“Where shall the word be found, where will the wordResound? Not here, there is not enough silence...”

“If the lost word is lost, if the spent word is spentIf the unheard, unspokenWord is unspoken, unheard;Still is the spoken word, the Word unheard,The Word without a word, the Word withinThe world and for the world;And the light shone in the darkness andAgainst the Word the unstilled world still whirledAbout the center of the silent Word.Oh my people, what have I done unto thee.Where shall the word be found, where shall the wordResound? Not here, there is not enough silence”

“A word into the silence thrown always finds its echo somewhere where silence opens hidden lexicons.”

“Knowledge of speech, but not of silence;Knowledge of words, and ignorance of the Word...Where is the Life we have lost in living?Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge?Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?”

“We're fascinated by the words--but where we meet is in the silence behind them.”

“...and where shall we go from here? The Library is vast and infinite.”
