Summary

This quote suggests that drawing and talking are different forms of communication that stimulate different senses. Drawing is likened to speaking because it directly communicates with the eye, implying that visual representation can convey a message or tell a story. On the other hand, talking is compared to painting, as it uses words to create images in the mind of the listener, appealing to the sense of hearing. The quote highlights the unique qualities of these two forms of expression and their ability to captivate different senses.
