Alain (Émile-Auguste Chartier)
WORDS ABOUT WORDS
When we speak, in gestures or signs, we fashion a real object in the world; the gesture is seen, the words and the song are heard. The arts are simply a kind of writing, which, in one way or another, fixes words or gestures, and gives body to the invisible.
—Alain, The Gods
