I’m starting a habit of compiling my highlighted notes for everything I absorb — to slowly grow my inspiration library.

I listened to this on being interview with ocean vuong yesterday — and I loved the way he talked about language as its own spoken body — moving and breathing in space — and of course, the body as its own language.

to see language as its own body is to say:

(1) language is a living thing. language breathes. language dies. language lives in movement, in air, in change — across time and space. the air itself is a vessel for language, especially when it is spoken.
