Grammar is a piano I play by ear…

by Rick Killian | Apr 2, 2015 | 0 comments

Grammar is a piano I play by ear,
since I seem to have been out of school the year the rules were mentioned.
All I know about grammar is its infinite power.
To shift the structure of a sentence alters the meaning of that sentence,
as definitely and inflexibly as the position of the camera
alters the meaning of the object photographed.

—Joan Didion
