Riddle: I hold countless voices that never speak, countless journeys that never move, and ask for quiet to share them all. What am I?
Answer: Library. "I hold countless voices that never speak": This refers to the vast number of books in a library. Each book contains the "voice" (ideas, stories, knowledge) of its author, but the physical book itself is silent. "countless journeys that never move": Books describe "journeys" (adventures, travelogues, fictional quests), but the books remain stationary on the shelves. The reader takes the journey through their imagination.
