To Be A Word
I had come to see language as an almost supernatural force, existing between people, bringing our brains, shielded in centimeter-thick skulls, into communion. A word meant something only between people, and life’s meaning, its virtue, had something to do with the depth of the relationships we form.
Paul Kalanithi • When Breath Becomes Air
The technology is not what matters. Words are what matter. The sharing of words. The activation of imagination through the reading of words.
