Freek de Jonge in De vergrijzing: "Als ik alles kan zeggen ... verliest mijn taal ... aan zeggingskracht". That translates to "If I can say anything ... my language looses ... eloquence ". Eloquence isn't quite right though. Zeggingskracht is also power of expression, expressiveness, vigor. It's the kind of word that committees that judge art contests like to use.
It's just one sentence. But this happens so often, just one sentence. They slip through so easily, these single sentences. They add a sense of depth, give meaning. Or so it seems. To people who don't read, to people who don't look, to people who don't listen. If you don't know anything, emptyness is easily mistaken for depth.
