Stephen Mitchell
“He doesn't hear but sees the Voice.”
Stephen Mitchell, The Book of Job
tags: hear, see, voice

“Sound has a profound effect on the senses. It can be both herd and felt. It can even be seen with the mind’s eye. It can almost be tasted and smelled. Sound can evoke responses of the five senses. Sound can paint a picture, produce a mood, trigger the senses to remember another time and place. From infancy we hear sound with our entire bodies. When I hear my own name, I have as much a sense of it entering my body through my back or my hand or my chest as through my ears. Sound speaks to the sensorium; the entire system of nerves that stimulates sensual responce.”
Louis E. Colaianni, The Joy of Phonetics and Accents

“your voice is a place i want to take shelter in, a place that makes me feel safe and soft.”
Zaeema J. Hussain, The Sky Is Purple

عباس الأسواني
“كثيرون لا يعطون لنبرات الصوت أهمية . مع أن النبرات لا تقل عن العيون كشفا لطبيعة النفس”
عباس الأسواني, رجل من الأمس

David Ebershoff
“Anna's voice wasn't a beautiful voice - rough edged and sorrowful, a bit used, somehow male and female at once. Yet it had more vibrancy to it than most Danish voices, which were often thin and white and too pretty to trigger a shiver. Anna's voice had the heat of the south; it warmed Einar, as if her throat were red with coals.”
David Ebershoff, The Danish Girl
