Russell Hoban said this quote

“ All of this comes out of what is now an empty space. There are depths to this. It's a lot to think about. From an empty space the future. If there's no empty space where can one put the future? It all figures if you take the time to think it out. ”

And in each plane of stillness is the moment of clarity that makes you responsible for what you do.
