Who We Are
Writers. Translators. Linguists.
An Idea Aiming to Facilitate
The Metasynthesis of All The Ideas in Indian Languages.
Words! Mere words! How terrible they were! How clear, vivid, and cruel! One could not escape from them. And yet what a subtle magic there was in them! They seemed to be able to give a plastic form to formless things, and to have a music of their own as sweet as that of viol or of lute. Mere words! Was there anything so real as words?
- Oscar Wilde
