Strange how at times I feel the need to stress that these are strictly my opinions. Which should be obvious, shouldn't it? Think of how tiring it would be to read a text where every sentence began with "In my opinion" or "I personally think"or something else of the sort.

But why doesn't this happen in art? When we see a work of art with a message, we always presuppose it is clearly a very personal and subjective message the author has in mind, with no real claim for truth. For some reason it is not so when it comes to written works. Perhaps the standardization of fonts is to blame?

Maybe, if everyone could write in their very own personal font, we would not forget that each and every one of us has a rather small and limited (albeit unique and very interesting) point of view and whatever we communicate, we hope to be the truth. This is beautiful thing and when not explicitly claiming to express an absolute truth which all must adhere to, should not be taken as a anything repressive, but rather a step towards freedom. Like another hole poked into a roof, revealing more and more of the sky.
