Fr. Martin Laird : Out of silence something is born that leads to silence itself

Fr. Martin Laird, renowned author and Professor of Early Christian Studies at Villanova University Silence is both porous and generous enough to receive both noise and no-noise and forms the ground from which we both see through the illusion of separation from God and are trained by the ordeals (depression, anxiety, despair) of life rooted in the Mystery in Whom we live and move and have our being.
