❝We usually use words without thinking. We speak, and, through processes not yet understood, the words we use inspire what we hope are thoughts similar to those we intended in our listeners. We don’t think much about words. We often don’t realize that words have structure. And since we don’t perceive structure, we don’t see the poetry of words.❞

— Paul McFetridge, A Linguistic Introduction to the History and Structure of the English Lexicon (via vtvo)
