601. There is always the danger of wanting
to find an expression’s meaning by contemplating the expression itself, and the
frame of mind in which one uses it, instead of always thinking of the practice.
This is why one repeats the expression to oneself so often, because it is as if
one must see what one is looking for in the expression and in the feeling it
gives one.
if you are contemplating an expression –
you are considering its use –
the possibilities of its use
the meaning of an expression –
is the possibilities of its use
