A man of words and not of deeds

Once a word has been allowed to escape, it cannot be recalled.

Horace (65-8 B.C.)

Rotor is a fine palindrome, thought Frank Leigh Dearie as he ambled down the Lost Highway.
A word after a word after a word is power.
(Margaret Atwood)
There is a purity in words that cannot be sullied by their use.
The old folks say that the spoken word is the garment of the soul. What man of true wit would clothe his beloved in filth and tatters?
Words beginning with the »sn« sound in English are often unpleasant: snide, snob, snigger, sneer, snicker, snub, snert, snotty, snippy, snit, snarl, snore, sneak, snag. »Snow« is a word over which there is debate and even an annual change of heart. The first snowfall is almost always welcomed. Christmas snow is considered magical. But too much of a good thing for too long and March blizzards push »snow« into line with the rest of the »sn« words.
A word has the power to define, to bind, to create, to destroy. Truely, a poet has power undreamt of by kings.
Isn't it weird that words work as well as they do? Think about it.
The right word may be effective, but no word was ever as effective as a rightly timed pause.
(Mark Twain)
Words are like prodigies. They may want to stay inside where it is safe and warm but they'll never live if they never play outside...and find themselves lost in the cold.
