Walker Percy Quotes
I Stood Up. Can A Man Stand Alone, Naked, And At His Ease, Wrist Flexed At His Side Like Michelangelo's David, Without Assistance, Without Diversion, Without Drink, Without Friends, Without A Woman, In Silence? Yes. It Was Possible To Stand. Nothing Happened. I Listened. There Was No Sound: No Boats On The River, No Trucks On The Road, Not Even Cicadas. What If I Didn't Listen To The News? I Didn't. Nothing Happened. I Realized I Had Been Afraid Of Silence.
