There has been a reference to Karate Kid (pg. 33), and some refreshing examples of sentences and forms.

"You can't do anything with "furiously sleep ideas green colorless" not because it is without meaning, but because it is without form" (27).

It should read (as from Noam Chomsky) "colorless green ideas sleep furiously" and while that is nonsensical--we understand that it works! Keep reading!

It is often said that the job of language is to report ... reality, but the power of language is greater and more dangerous...; it shapes reality ... in the sense that the order imposed on a piece of the world by a sentence is only one among innumerable possible orders.37 In short, pick your effect, figure out what you want to do, and then figure out to do it. 44
