The older i grow the more sharply i mistrust words. so few of them have any meaning left. it is impossible to write one sentence in which every word has the bareness and hardness of bones, the reality of the skeleton.

More From Storm Jameson

Yeah? can you draw a skeleton riding a motorcycle with flames coming out of it? and i want a pirate hat on the skeleton. and a parrot on his shoulder. a skeleton parrot. or maybe a ninja skeleton parrot? no, that would be overkill. but it'd be cool if the biker skeleton could be shooting some ninja throwing stars. that are on fire.
Stars Fire Skeletons
Most people write the same sentence over and over again. the same number of words-say, 8-10, or 10-12. the same sentence structure. try to become stretchy-if you generally write 8 words, throw a 20 word sentence in there, and a few three-word shorties. if you're generally a 20 word writer, make sure you throw in some threes, fivers and sevens, just to keep the reader from going crosseyed.
Writing Numbers People
As soon as you look at the world through an ideology you are finished. no reality fits an ideology. life is beyond that. that is why people are always searching for a meaning to life. but life has no meaning; it cannot have meaning because meaning is a formula; meaning is something that makes sense to the mind. every time you make sense out of reality, you bump into something that destroys the sense you made . meaning is only found when you go beyond meaning.
Spiritual Reality People
If the lost word is lost, if the spent word is spent if the unheard, unspoken word is unspoken, unheard; still is the spoken word, the word unheard, the word without a word, the word within the world and for the world; and the light shone in the darkness and against the word the unstilled world still whirled about the center of the silent word. oh my people, what have i done unto thee. where shall the word be found, where shall the word resound? not here, there is not enough silence
Light People Silence
It's kind of like sentencing. a lot of people say that we have a heavy sentence for this crime and a light sentence for another crime, and what we ought to do is reduce the heavy sentence so it's more in line with the other. wrong. in most cases we ought to increase the light sentence and make it compatible with the heavy sentence, and be serious about punishment because we are becoming too tolerant as a society, folks, especially of crime, in too many parts of the country.

...if the fear of falling into error is the source of a mistrust in science, which in the absence of any such misgivings gets on with the work itself and actually does know, it is difficult to see why, conversely, a mistrust should not be placed in this mistrust, and why we should not be concerned that this fear of erring is itself the very error.
