Words

Words reduce reality to something the human mind can grasp, which isn’t very much.”

Eckart Tolle, A New Earth

Words are important.  I don’t think Tolle means to discount them – though if he did that would add yet another twist to the quote written by a New York Times best seller on the Oprah Book Club list.  I think what he is conveying is that we get full of words, sated with verbiage, very quickly.  He’s right.  I’ll stop there.
