Tom Stoppard Quotes
Words... They're innocent, neutral, precise, standing for this, describing that, meaning the other, so if you look after them you can build bridges across incomprehension and chaos.

If you get the right ones in the right order, you can nudge the world a little or make a poem which children will speak for you when you're dead.
