Empty space Quote by Kai Meyer

““He shook his head. "Have you ever wondered who's in the gaps in the crowd?" She glanced at him in surprise. Maybe she'd been wrong, and he was more than just a little odd. "Gaps in the crowd?" she repeated. "If there are a lot of people all in one place, a hundred or a thousand or more, there'll still be some empty spaces. Gaps right at the front. Or in the middle. Or on the outside. You just have to look carefully to see them." He shifted gears as two heavy trucks appeared side by side ahead of them. "Those are the gaps in the crowd. And if you look very closely, you notice that they're moving about. Just like the people around them." Rosa pressed her lips together and said, "Hmm," as if she understood what he was talking about. "They're weird," he said. "The gaps?" "Because they're really not empty." "No?" "No, they aren't. They're always there, and in other places, too. Around us, but invisible. It's only in a crowd you can see them. No one can move into the places where the gaps are.””
