I think this is a beautifully expressed thought:
"… as soon as I saw 'the slow web movement,' I assigned my own meaning to it. Because it’s a great name, and great names are like knots—they’re woven from the same stringy material as other words, but in their particular arrangement, they catch, become junctions to which new threads arrive, from which other threads depart."
