Stammering is different than stuttering. Stutterers have trouble with the letters, while stammerers trip over entire parts of a sentence. We stammerers generally think of ourselves as very bright.

I still have a stammer that I can control by not opening a sentence with a hard consonant, or by concentrating for a moment, breathing softly down. Growing up, the 'Our Father' was lovely, made for me, the 'Hail Mary' was gorgeous, and 'Glory Be to the Father' was an absolute nightmare.

I believe if a sentence is to retain its strength over time, it needs to be carefully made.

I mean, language fascinates me anyway, and different words have different energies and you can change the whole drive of a sentence.

Although many texters enjoy breaking linguistic rules, they also know they need to be understood.

Sentences are not as such either true or false.

Breathing is fundamental to speech. A stammer is caused by erratic airflow, so if you have a smooth airflow, you have smooth speech.

Pithy sentences are like sharp nails which force truth upon our memory.

It's true and it's easily said that language is material, and something does materialise as one writes.
