A Bible-leaved of all the written woods
Strip to this tree: a rocking alphabet,
Genesis in the root, the scarecrow word,
And one light’s language in the book of trees.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

“Speech belongs half to the speaker, half to the listener. The latter must prepare to receive it according to the motion it takes.”
