Florence Converse Quotes

I Know You Do Not Understand What I Am Trying To Tell You; I Know You Do Not Understand, Because It Is The Thing That Goes Deepest Into My Heart, And There Are No Words As Deep Down As That. How Can I Make You Know The Reality Of It? The World Has Spattered Us All Over With Words, With Cant Phrases, With Sarcasm, And With Fulsome Flattery. The World Has Been So Officiously Eager To Explain For Us The Thing We Mean And The Worth Of The Thing That Now, When We Try To Speak, Our Meaning Is Veiled, Concealed, Smothered, By The Hideous Volubility Of Facile Expression. How Can It Have Any Reality For You When You Hear Only Words About It?
