&ldquo;Anyone who writes well, I suspect, writes primarily by ear, listening to the music of words. That means we should be careful what language we allow to tune our ears.

You won&#039;t be able to hear the clunks and cliches. You won&#039;t know whether your sentences are breathing.&rdquo;<br /> -Scott Russell Sanders
