My new year's resolution is to breathe better.
A book I'm reading by Patsy Rodenburg says this (with a reminder of the etymology of "inspiration"): "The knowledge hidden in the word inspiration is true. We need to take a full breath to capture an idea."
Breathing deeper helps me sleep better too.

"It's a beautiful thing, the destruction of words. Of course the great wastage is in the verbs and adjectives, but there are hundreds of nouns that can be got rid of as well. It isn't only the synonyms; there are also the antonyms." --Nineteen Eighty-Four

¡Acentos! ¡Ortografía!
Many commentators say that vigilante groups are never the answer. But they clearly don't know about the masked Ecuadorian trio named “Acción Ortográfica Quito,” who roam the streets at night with a singular purpose: to correct all the spelling and grammar mistakes they find in graffiti.
