Summary

This quote suggests that words are powerful tools that help us comprehend and express our experiences. When we use words, we are able to extract specific concepts from our general experiences, giving them shape and meaning. Just as a carver uses tools to sculpt a statue out of stone, words act as our tools to shape and articulate our understanding of the world around us. Words enable us to communicate and share our thoughts, feelings, and ideas, effectively transforming our experiences into tangible concepts accessible to others.
