Shaking words

The best word shakers were those who understood the true power of words. They were always able to climb the highest. One such word shaker was a small, skinny girl. She was renowned as the best of her region because she knew how powerless a person could be WITHOUT words. She had desire. She was hungry for them. 

~ from 'The Word Shaker', in The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
