Words

Lincoln cared about the “music of words.,” Mr. Wlliis continued.   “He read everything aloud, even the newspapers, driving his aides crazy.”   Such care for cadence is hard to find today. Teaching writing is extremely difficult and labor-intensive, and Cicero’s advice to an orator is still valid: write, write – write with the idea of hearing words.”   - Barth Healey Words should be joyful, colorful and thought-energizing.  Craft them well and watch what you will create.
