Читать книгу Writing the Icon of the Heart - Maggie Ross - Страница 6

But the silence in the mind

is when we live best, within

listening distance of the silence

we call God. This is the deep

calling to deep of the psalm-

writer, the bottomless ocean

we launch the armada of

our thoughts on, never arriving.

It is presence, then,

whose margins are our margins;

that calls us out over our

own fathoms. What to do

but draw a little nearer to

such ubiquity by remaining still?

—R. S. Thomas
