Eloquence is a painting of the thoughts.

Eloquence is a painting of the thoughts.

Summary

This quote suggests that eloquence is a demonstrative expression of one's thoughts and ideas. Just as a painter uses strokes of colors to create a visual representation, eloquence uses words to convey meaning and emotions. It implies that being eloquent is not only about having a good command of language but also about effectively articulating one's thoughts and beliefs, captivating and influencing the audience with the beauty and clarity of the spoken or written word.
