I wish I could claim the title as my own quipy turn on a
familiar phrase but I heard it last night at dinner. Still, the words are true
of images because they plainly express the reality that words work so hard to convey.
That isn’t to say that the written or spoken word is dead or not worthy of
attention. Rather it makes those textual moments of clarity and expressiveness all
the more impressive.
We are inundated with images, imagine how many words those
are worth, but then we must also consider their value. Yet when reading what has
been written well each word is worth it.
