To give birth, to nourish,
to bear and not to own,
to act and not lay claim,
to lead and not to rule:
this is mysterious power.

Sometimes you want to say things, and you’re missing an idea to make them with, and missing a word to make the idea with. In the beginning was the word. That’s how somebody tried to explain it once. Until something is named, it doesn’t exist.
The people who get to impose their metaphors on the culture get to define what we consider to be true.
~Lakoff & Johnson
That's what careless words do. They make people love you a little less.
