Careless Words (2015)
 

The impact of negative words is often not considered when projected carelessly. Sigmund Freud once said “words have magic powers. They can bring either the greatest happiness or deepest despair” (Freud). This quote still resonates today and reminds us to think about the negative words we use. Homage to Sigmund Freud urges us to reflect and consider the effect that words can have on other individuals as they tend to linger well after they are used.
