    “I have the handicap of being born with a special language to which I alone have the key.”
    —Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)

    “Silence is the general consecration of the universe. Silence is the invisible laying on of the Divine Pontiff’s hands upon the world. Silence is at once the most harmless and the most awful thing in all nature. It speaks of the Reserved Forces of Fate. Silence is the only Voice of our God.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)
