Empty space Quote by Ali Benjamin

“Then, with a start, I understand something. It is music. I am certain--I mean, I just know--that all these different species are playing together, calling around one another's noises. Each of them has picked a pitch, a pattern, and they are filling in one another's empty spaces.” quote by Ali Benjamin
