Communication

Communication > Language

JACKAL - Mabuasehube Game Reserve, Botswana

My interpretation:
While language has its place, communication transcends it.

Quotes to consider:
“Genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood.” – T.S.Eliot
“The most important things are the hardest to say, because words diminish them.” – Stephen King
“The fish trap exists because of the fish. Once you’ve gotten the fish you can forget the trap. The rabbit snare exists because of the rabbit. Once you’ve gotten the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words exist because of their meaning. Once you’ve got the meaning, you can forget the words. Where can I find someone who has forgotten words so I can talk with him or her?” – Chuang Tzu
