"There is no such thing as a sentence, or a phrase, or a part of speech, or even a "word" — these are all pareidolic fantasies occasioned by glints of sunlight

"There is no such thing as a sentence, or a phrase, or a part of speech, or even a "word" — these are all pareidolic fantasies occasioned by glints of sunlight we see on reflected on the surface of the ocean of language; fantasies that we comfort ourselves with when faced with language’s infinite and unknowable variability."
This is a particularly beautiful articulation of the complexity of English (and language in general).
