“In the future the word for image will be word and the word for word won’t be a word but just silence.”

I see you reaching for the OED. No need to be sneaky, do it with open pride, it is one of the finest acts. To know the word — its spelling, the very bowels of its meaning, the womb which gave it birth — this is one of the few things in life worth pursuing.

ROHINTON MISTRY, from The Scream
