None of them said

The novel Silence written by Japanese author Shūsako Endo and the film interpretation of it directed by Martin Scorsese‚ who is a renowned director for his other films Taxi Driver‚ Goodfellas‚ and The Wolf of Wall Street‚ are truly two works of art that transcend storytelling and the way one views things‚ in my opinion.

Not a word is said. The silence says it all. She was upset and I didn’t need to know why. Silence in return was all that she needed to know‚ that she had my attention. That was fine with me. Octavia Butler‚ an American writer‚ states this better than I can. “Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing
