"Contemplation
is essentially a listening in silence. The contemplative waits on the
Word of God in silence, and when he is 'answered,' it is not so much by
a word that bursts into his silence. It is by his SILENCE ITSELF
suddenly, inexplicably, revealing itself to him as a word of great
power, full of the voice of God."
