Shakespeare’s Sonnet 102 Poet and screenwriter‚ Susan Griffin‚ once said‚ “A story is told as much by silence as by speech.” This statement underlines the fact that just because words are not spoken‚ it does not mean that there is no meaning behind the silence. Someone’s lack of words can have as much‚ if not even more‚ power as another’s most persuasive speech. In Sonnet 102‚ Shakespeare explains why he believes in the power of silence regarding his feelings towards his true love. His allusion
