Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Sacrifice of Silence Emerson somewhere, and truly, observes that there is a strange power in silence. But there are many kinds of silence. This has been tritely attested from time immemorial by axioms and epigrams laudatory of timely mutism as being at once one of the virtues of the wise, the ornament and safeguard of the ignorant, and an efficacious element of repute, whether deserved or not. Then there is that silence, "the child of love, which expresses everything and proclaims more loudly than tongue is able to do;" which is "the ecstatic bliss of souls that by intelligence converse." The particular phases of silence of which M. Rod treats have nothing in common with these, save incidentally with that which is the so eloquent offspring of love.
