Hoor

“Her pearled voice quiets a fountain. Even the silence, quiets.”
― Delmira Agustini

“your voice is a place i want to take shelter in, a place that makes me feel safe and soft.”
― Zaeema J. Hussain, The Sky Is Purple

“Sound has a profound effect on the senses. It can be both herd and felt. It can even be seen with the mind’s eye. It can almost be tasted and smelled. Sound can evoke responses of the five senses. Sound can paint a picture, produce a mood, trigger the senses to remember another time and place. From infancy we hear sound with our entire bodies. When I hear my own name, I have as much a sense of it entering my body through my back or my hand or my chest as through my ears. Sound speaks to the sensorium; the entire system of nerves that stimulates sensual responce.”
― Louis E. Colaianni, The Joy of Phonetics and Accents

“We all have a voice. Some a whisper, some a roar.

If you can roar, roar for others.

If you can only whisper, keep trying.
Every roar started small.”
― M.L. Shanahan
