An "aha" moment from my current paper........

"Language often describes things that we cannot see or observe at all. We regularly use words to describe feelings we only sense, abstract concepts we only ponder, and vast mythological ideas about God, death, the afterlife, and the altogether unknown. Language takes us further than we can physically go and logically exist."

Don't be a robot.

Can I be a robot anyway? A very articulate and poetry-reading robot?
