There are so many unbelievable words... But that doesn't mean I have a favorite word.

Words are like untying a corset - you can move into this great space with them.

I've always loved the word blunderbuss. I've always thought that it was a beautiful word and that it could mean several different things.

I'm still not used to the idea of being the youngest circumnavigator.

My favourite word? I think, delicious, because it sounds so delicious. You say it, and you just wanna eat a chocolate bar.

I suppose with any good writing and interesting characters, you can have that awfully overused word: a journey.

I coined a word the other day, but I forgot what it was. It was a good one, it came to me in a dream.

Every time I have to look up a word in the dictionary, I'm delighted.

I used to go through the dictionary looking for unusual but nontechnical words. At one time, I thought the greatest word was 'jejune' and I would throw it into every piece because something about it appealed to me.

I used to like the word of the day and when I read, highlight words that I didn't know and look them up.
