Absolutely right, Craig. This is excellently conveyed. We are simply conduits for the words which will be forged into something beautiful or ugly through you or I and if not us, they will come from others.
I like this idea. One of my quotes was something about words being all around us and all we had to do is 'pluck' them from the air. Whether we are here or not, the words are still there...they just need arranging in the right order.

Excellent
