“Have you ever felt you were speaking even though it wasn’t the right moment to speak?”
“Yes,” she answered.
“Take note of that feeling. Most words may not want to believe it, but we too need to make sure we don’t speak wordlets out loud without reason.”
Elias Vorpahl, The Word Trove

“With every step you take, you make a decision, for in taking that step you rule out countless other possibilities you might also have chosen. The secret is to decide. And with every decision you make in life, you take a step forward.”
Elias Vorpahl, The Word Trove

“You can’t write a story any way you like. The story decides. If you deviate from it, you get tangled up in lies that not a single soul believes.”
Elias Vorpahl, The Word Trove

“Saying the right words at the right time is like magic.”
Elias Vorpahl, The Word Trove

“Everyone makes sense, even a nonsense like me.”
Elias Vorpahl, The Word Trove

“Things don’t always need to have a name in order to be meaningful.”
Elias Vorpahl, The Word Trove

“With every step you take, you make a decision, for in taking that step you rule out countless other possibilities you might also have chosen. The secret is to decide. And with every decision you make in life, you take a step forward.”
Elias Vorpahl, The Word Trove

“As long as I’m surprising, entertaining and puzzling, as long as I have imagination, I also have meaning. That’s how I see it, anyway. Remember that. Without imagination, most things are pretty boring. Everyday life, the same old routine day in day out. For me, ordinariness is the biggest nonsense of all.”
Elias Vorpahl, The Word Trove
