“Silence is not the absence of sound but its fullness. It not a question of being ‘dumb’, with nothing to say. Rather, it comes from sense that all has been said. “Out of silence God said but one word”. God is Silence, so to speak. The Word is said in order to lead us into Silence. The Word grants an experience of the divine Presence, like a window opening onto a vast panorama. The Silence empties itself, so to speak, by expressing itself totally, for nothing is held back, nothing is hidden; all is said. In the same way, the Word refers back to Silence. Silence expresses itself completely in the Word; the Word for its part manifests Silence in complete clarity. Word and Silence go together, equally, in an interplay.”
