Silence

From page 42:

"Sound moves slowly enough that we are aware of its pulse and the way it issues from and returns to silence. We can hear sound because it vibrates the eardrum; we can feel it more physically and dramatically when the sound of a drum vibrates the body's resonant bones and tissues. Listening provides ample evidence that life consists of energy and rhythm."
