David Eddings Quote
If there's a noise in the woods, and there's nobody around to hear it, is it really a noise?Of course it is, she replied calmly.How did you reach that conclusion? Beldin demanded.Because there's no such thing as an empty place, uncle. There are always creatures around --wild animals, mice, insects, birds --and they can all hear.But what if there weren't? What if the woods are truly empty?Why waste your time talking about an impossibility?
