Cage on language and process
 

Cage (in For the Birds): "We would not have language if we were not in process. But I don't believe normal language can provide us with that process. That's why I insist on the necessity of not letting ourselves be dragged along by language. Words impose feelings on us if we consider them as objects, that is, if we don't let them, too, be what they are: process"
