Quote by Carrie Fisher

I have a mess in my head sometimes, and there's something very satisfying about putting it into words. Certainly it's not something that you're in charge of, necessarily, but writing about it, putting it into your words, can be a very powerful experience.

Summary

This quote highlights the cathartic aspect of writing. When our thoughts and emotions become tangled in our minds, it can feel overwhelming. However, by translating these jumbled ideas into written words, we gain a sense of satisfaction.

It becomes a powerful and transformative experience, as it provides an outlet for self-expression and helps us make sense of our own internal mess.

Made up as it is of people from different nations, accustomed to different forms and habits of government, speaking different languages, and more different in their modes of worship, it would appear that the union of such a people was impracticable; but by the simple operation of constructing government on the principles of society and the rights of man, every difficulty retires, and all the parts are brought into cordial unison. There the poor are not oppressed, the rich are not privileged. Industry is not mortified by the splendid extravagance of a court rioting at its expense. Their taxes are few, because their government is just: and as there is nothing to render them wretched, there is nothing to engender riots and tumults.
