• Bendice a las personas cuando te injurien. Piensa en el bien que están haciendo al ayudar a erradicar el falso ego. Aférrate al Yo real. Piensa sólo pensamientos puros, y lograrás más que un regimiento de meros predicadores. De la pureza y el silencio surge la palabra de poder.

• He was intrigued by the power of words, not the literary words that filled the books in the library but the sharp, staccato words that went into the writing of news stories. Words that went for the jugular. Active verbs that danced and raced on the page.

• Las palabras... Son inocentes, neutras, precisas, representan esto, describen aquello, significan lo otro, así que si las cuidas puedes tender puentes sobre la incomprensión y el caos. Pero cuando les quitan las esquinas, ya no sirven... No creo que los escritores sean sagrados, pero las palabras sí. Merecen respeto. Si consigues las adecuadas en el orden correcto, puedes dar un pequeño codazo al mundo o hacer un poema cuyos hijos hablarán por ti cuando estés muerto.

• Los sabios yóguicos dicen que todo el dolor de la vida humana está causado por las palabras, al igual que toda la alegría. Creamos palabras para definir nuestra experiencia y esas palabras traen consigo emociones que nos sacuden como perros con correa. Nos dejamos seducir por nuestros propios mantras (soy un fracasado, me siento solo, soy un fracasado, me siento solo) y nos convertimos en monumentos a ellos. Por eso, dejar de hablar durante un tiempo es intentar despojarnos del poder de las palabras, dejar de asfixiarnos con ellas, liberarnos de nuestros mantras asfixiantes.

• Encantados por el poder denotativo de las palabras para definir, ordenar y representar las cosas que nos rodean, hemos pasado por alto la dimensión musical del lenguaje, tan obvia para nuestros antepasados orales. Hemos perdido el oído para la música del lenguaje, para la capa rítmica y melódica del habla por la que las cosas terrenales nos escuchan.

• I've spent years studying words. Linguistics, language, the power of words, the power of phrases on human beings. All of that. It's part of my, almost obsessive, fascination. It turns out that there are some keys that we all need to know about how conversations impact us, because they do at a chemical level. There are certain things that if we learned this, it would totally change our interactions with others, and that's the following. There are certain words that have a feeling of, "I love you, I care for you, you're in my tribe."
