In argument similes are like songs in love; they describe much, but prove nothing.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Similes prove nothing, but yet greatly lighten and relieve the tedium of argument.
The simile has to match the tone of its surroundings and has to be like a little joke. Writing a simile that isn't funny on some level is quite hard.
Metaphors are much more tenacious than facts.
Metaphor matters because it creates expectations.
I went out on a date with Simile. I don't know what I metaphor.
Metaphor is embodied in language.
When a thing is true, there is no need to use any arguments to substantiate it.
The thing about metaphors is that, if you give them away, you give away the mystery.
The transparency of a metaphor displays the glint of truth. But if a metaphor is taken for a reality, it then becomes dense and masks the truth it is meant to display.
Metaphors have a way of holding the most truth in the least space.
