A Lovely Life.

Jan 17

quote

“‎So avoid using the word ‘very’ because it’s lazy. A man is not very tired, he is exhausted. Don’t use very sad, use morose. Language was invented for one reason, boys - to woo women - and, in that endeavor, laziness will not do.”

»Comment: So women had no contribution to the development of language? That’s very, very one-sided, and “male-gaze” oriented. (Yes, I deliberately worked the passive voice in there, too.)

— Dead Poets Society, 1989 (via supernaturaljoy)
