when björk said that trying to communicate through talking feels like trying to put the ocean through a straw… oh how right she was
“At least, I'm the kind of person who when it comes to, say, something like language or just communicating on a daily basis, I feel like I'm trying to put an ocean through a straw.”

Björk Quotes (Author of Stories for Kids Who Dare to Be Different)
“Well, we use words to communicate, right? Still, most of our words don’t actually get across. You know what I mean? Well, our words might, but not what we’re actually trying to say. That’s what we’re always dealing with. We live in this place, in this world, where we can share our words but not our thoughts.
