Shifting the Silence Quotes

“Silence is the creation of space, a space that memory needs to use . . . an incubator. We're dealing here with dimensions, stretching our inner muscles, pushing aside any interference. We're dealing with numbers, but not counting. Silence demands the nature of night, even in full day, it demands shadows.”
― Etel Adnan, Shifting the Silence

“There's a dance of fireflies, little lights turning around the boats of the Bay, tiny creatures chanting, fish jumping-the feast of early summer subsiding in the heat, and lemonades!”
― Etel Adnan, Shifting the Silence
