“Although power predates the sovereignty of language, the will of the world is defined by speech, its rubric preserved by voicing the visual and the abstract. We were nothing more than label-makers. Etymological parasites. Concepts reduced to single terminology might as well count for a groan, the same brass snore from another room. Comprehension is a code, a cipher swapped out against forms remote or in motion, the remainder relegated fantastically to the opaque and fallacious.”
