Most worth telling...

I believe what is most worth telling is always what cannot be told.  (Gadamer, "Die Kunst, unrecht haben zu können: Gespräch mit dem Philosophen Hans-Georg Gadamer," Süddeutsche Zeitung 34 [1990] 16; quoted in Jean Grondin, Introduction to Philosophical Hermeneutics 166 n. 37.) What we say always mean more than is actually expressed. "A meaning, an intention always goes above and beyond what is actually captured in language, in words that reach others. An insatiable yearning for the right word – that is what constitutes the genuine life and nature of language." (Gadamer, "Grenzen der Sprache," 99; quoted in Grondin 123.)
