"Have you ever heard the sound of one hand clapping?"

One hand clapped to his head, he reached out to her with the other.

For the second time within as many minutes, a hand clapped itself over my mouth.

Strong arms grabbed hold of him, a hand clapped over his mouth.

What I had taken for drums was actually the sound of several hundred hands clapping.

With four hands clapping, there were none left for the wheel.

He was not surprised when a friendly hand clapped him on the back.

She realized she'd made a new mistake, clapped a hand to her mouth to try to set it right.

All around, hands clapped to the beat, urging me on.

Those who heard and understood ran with hands clapped over their ears away from his voice.
