Jeanette Winterson Quotes

Eating Words And Listening To Them Rumbling In The Gut Is How A Writer Learns The Acid And Alkali Of Language. It Is A Process At The Same Time Physical And Intellectual. The Writer Has To Hear Language Until She Develops Perfect Pitch, But She Also Has To Feel Language, To Know It Sweat And Dry. The Writer Finds The Words Are Visceral, And When She Can Eat Them, Wear Them, And Enter Them Like Tunnels She Discovers The Alleged Separation Between Word And Meaning Between Writer And Word Is Theoretical.
