This reminds me of my favorite Hemmingway quote, where he speaks of his contemporary Faulkner:
"Poor Faulkner. Does he really think big emotions come from big words? He thinks I don’t know the ten-dollar words. I know them all right. But there are older and simpler and better words, and those are the ones I use."
