All we really know is that menunlike animalssomehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelingsactions and thingsso that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs

called letterswhich could be combined to represent those sounds and which could be written down. Those soundswhether spokenor written in letterswe call words.

The power of wordsthenlies in their association—the thing they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live

the more certain words recall to us the glad and the sad events of our past; and the more we read and learnthe more the number of words that mean something to us increase.

Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all

the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like musicand which by their position and association can move men to tears. We shouldthereforelearn to choose our words carefully and use them accuratelyor they make our speech silly and vulgar.
