Was it possible in any relationship to not disappoint, to do anything more than only briefly rekindle the initial fatal illusion?

Lily King

You don't realize how language actually interferes with communication until you don't have it, how it gets in the way like an overdominant sense. You have to pay much more attention to everything else when you can't understand the words. Once comprehension comes, so much else falls away. You then rely on their words, and words aren't always the most reliable thing.
