Words are, of course, the most powerful drug used by mankind.
While you're writing, you can't concentrate nearly as well on what the speaker is saying.
Writing comes more easily if you have something to say.
My family was always playing with words. It is little wonder that even after I got serious about writing, I've had a hard time getting serious about words.

Words must surely be counted among the most powerful drugs man ever invented.
When you combine something to say with the skill to say it properly, then you've got a good writer.
The word processor is a better tool than a quill pen because you can do so much more with it, but on the other hand, what you have to say and how you say it is the ultimate determination.
When I write something, every word of it is meant. I can't say it enough.
Words are the physicians of a mind diseased.
