"Do you find it easy to get drunk on words?"
"So easy that, to tell you the truth, I am seldom perfectly sober. Which accounts for my talking so much."

Many thanks to owlsie for pointing this one out. I think I'm in love. And also laughing helplessly...

(Quote above from 'Gaudy Night'.)

Words, words, words... I shall never be sober again!

I feel ravished in my soul. I want to stride forth shouting that like Whitman through the streets of Manhattan.

Also, I couldn't look away. I think I'm going to be seeing swooping words in my visual field all day.
