A materialidade das palavras

 "This was my first real lesson about language—this inkling that a word is a solid, something firm and pal­pable. It was news to me that a word is matter, that it exists in tactual materiality, that it has a cubic bulk. Only on the page is it flat and undensified. In the mouth and in the mind it is three-dimensional, and there are parts that shoot out from it or sink into its syntactic surround"
