“A screaming silence surrounds us. The waves claw the shore in hushed strokes. My words claw at my throat. “In silent words, you speak so much.” “And you, though you speak volumes, say precious little. Don’t you know that words are actors set in motion, and you are the playwright. They can create a mood of harmony or destroy peace in violent isolation. Words are civilians or soldiers; artists or autocrats; worshippers or pagans. They make you rich or sell you into poverty. Master them and you rule, or be mastered by them and serve.” She pauses as if in reflection. “Words can sway the masses; words can sway your own soul.” — Craig Froman
