If it weren't for her, there would never have been an empty space, or the need to fill it. — © Nicole Krauss
If it weren't for her, there would never have been an empty space, or the need to fill it.
She was gone, and all that was left was the space you'd grown around her, like a tree that grows around a fence. For a long time, it remained hollow. Years, maybe.

If it weren't for her, there would never have been an empty space, or the need to fill it.
I really believe in empty spaces, although, as an artist, I make a lot of junk. Empty space is never-wasted space. Wasted space is any space that has art in it.

My mother would write letters when I was away at camp and say, 'There's an Ann-shaped space around the house. Nobody fills an Ann-shaped space except an Ann.' I'm convinced we all have a God-shaped space in us, and until we fill that space with God, we'll never know what it is to be whole.
Thirty spokes meet in the hub, but the empty space between them is the essence of the wheel. Pots are formed from clay, but the empty space within it is the essence of the pot. Walls with windows and doors form the house, but the empty space within it is the essence of the home.
Love can come when you're already who you are, when you're filled with you. Not when you look to someone else to fill the empty space.
Missing pieces do more than complete the puzzle, they fill in an empty space.
Make an empty space in any corner of your mind, and creativity will instantly fill it.
This was something she would keep hidden within herself, maybe in place of the knot of pain and anger she had been carrying under her breastbone...a security blanket, an ace up her sleeve. She might never use it, but she would always feel its presence like a swelling secret stone, and that way when she let go of the rage, she would not feel nearly as empty.
A real ballerina must fill her space with her own personality.
