“A picture is worth a thousand words.”
At some point in history, adults decided it was a good idea to start introducing children to turns of phrase that they may not even be able to spell yet, let alone understand. On paper it doesn’t make much sense, but admittedly, the practice has panned out. I’m less concerned with the specifics than others, some of whom have taken up the comical task of finding exactly how many words a picture is worth, but the meaning behind that classic saying has never been lost on me. A single image not only has the potential to communicate more information, but better and different information as well.
