More From David Nicholls

If the lost word is lost, if the spent word is spent if the unheard, unspoken word is unspoken, unheard; still is the spoken word, the word unheard, the word without a word, the word within the world and for the world; and the light shone in the darkness and against the word the unstilled world still whirled about the center of the silent word. oh my people, what have i done unto thee. where shall the word be found, where shall the word resound? not here, there is not enough silence

In my dreams is a country where the state is the church and the church the people: three in one and one in three. it is a commonwealth in which work is play and play is life: three in one and one in three. it is a temple in which the priest is the worshiper and the worshiper the worshipped: three in one and one in three. it is a godhead in which all life is human and all humanity divine: three in one and one in three.

Bach was so mathematical and i liked this idea that you could have one instrument going, 'one, two, three, four', and then you have another instrument going, [double time] 'one, two, three four', and another instrument going, [doubled again] 'one, two, three, four, one, two, three, four', so you could add twos and fours and eighths, and that happens a lot in bach.
