Writing: Vigorous writing is
concise. A sentence should contain
no unnecessary words, a paragraph
no unnecessary sentences, for the
same reason that a drawing should
have no unnecessary lines and a
machine no unnecessary parts.
This requires not that the writer
make all his sentences short, or
that he avoid all detail and treat
his subjects only in outline, but
that every word tell.
~~William Strunk~~
