"Lightly men talk of saying what they mean. Often when he was teaching me to write Greek the Fox would say, 'Child, to say the very thing you really mean, the whole of it, nothing more or less or other than what you really mean; that's the whole art and joy of words.'"
From C.S. Lewis, Till We Have Faces: A Myth Retold. (London: Geoffrey Blues, 1956), p. 305.
