the word

 
 
 
 

 
 
 
When I pronounce the word Future,
the first syllable already belongs to the past.

When I pronounce the word Silence,
I destroy it.

When I pronounce the word Nothing,
I make something no nonbeing can hold.




– Wislawa Szymborska
 Polish Poet (Born July 1923)/Nobel Literature Prize 1996
