Small Peculiar

I think I read this fact in a book when I was a child, and by God it turned out to be true. There’s always been something fundamentally thrilling about that to me. Not the starlings’ beaks, though I like that too. I mean it thrills me that you can write down an idea and someone else can read it and then it’s an idea in that person’s head too. It’s a kind of telepathy, yet I never hear it described that way.
