Working with words, as we humans do, is like working with very primitive limited materials. It takes extra effort and creativity to express anything that even resembles something worthwhile. The limitations of language is what keeps the human species firmly stationed in an inferior position, for certainly if birds could speak our words they would be too burdened to fly.
“We're trapped in linguistic constructs... all that is, is metaphor.” -Robert Anton Wilson
