“By one’s choice of language one could conceal or reveal, magnify or minimize, simplify or complexify, elevate or degrade, link or divide…language also thinks for us: it shapes our experiences of the world, our communication of those experiences and their subsequent validation by others… the most important and most accessible facts about human beings are not found in what they do , or in their biologies and chemistries, but in their language, and in what they say about what they do.” Kenneth Burke
