A Quote by Gaston Bachelard on silence, poets, dreams, and creativity

It is the silence, rather, that obliges the poet to listen, and gives the dream greater intimacy. We hardly know where to situate this silence, whether in the vast world or in the immense past. But we do know that it comes from beyond a wind that dies down or a rain that grows gentle.

Gaston Bachelard (1884 - 1962)
