There is a wise old man who never spoke, not because he couldn’t, that he had nothing to say. It was because he believed that language deceived, that by its very nature it clouded the truth, it made the world harder to know. He believed that the truth, the truth lived only in silence….where all love is found.

It was said that he could change minds in that way by softening the hardest of hearts….. all the while never having to say a word.
