THE PRISONER IN THE CELL NEXT DOOR
In Gravity and Grace, Simone Weil tells the story of two prisoners in solitary confinement whose cells are next to each other. A stone wall separates them and they never have seen the other. But over years, they discover each other’s existence and learn to communicate using taps and scratches. The very wall that separates them is their sole means of communicating. “It is the same with us and God,” she says. “Every separation is a link.”
