#3 Quote by Nathaniel Hawthorne

"Words -- so innocent and powerless as they are, as standing in a dictionary, how potent for good and evil they become in the hands of one who knows how to combine them."

I think that this quote means that when I word stands by itself, its definition is the only meaning it has. When someone has the ability to combine words and put them into a sentence or even a story, then those words have the potential to represent good or evil.
