I am gennerally understood tho I do not use that awkward squad of pointings called commas colons semicolons etc.
Life is a series of commas, not periods.
I like commas. I detest semi-colons - I don't think they belong in a story. And I gave up quotation marks long ago. I found I didn't need them, they were fly-specks on the page.
Now, you lose something in your life, or you come into a conflict, and there's gonna come a time that you're gonna know: There was a reason for that. And at the end of your life, all the things you thought were periods, they turn out to be commas. There was never a full stop in any of it.
I demand that my books be judged with utmost severity, by knowledgeable people who know the rules of grammar and of logic, and who will seek beneath the footsteps of my commas the lice of my thought in the head of my style.
A good procrastination should feel like you're inserting lots and lots of commas into the sentence of your life.
I have been fighting over commas all my life.
Commas in The New Yorker fall with the precision of knives in a circus act, outlining the victim.
