I'm not sure I understand that quote. Doesn't language exist because there isn't any other way to say some things? How else would one say most things?

Most things don't need to be said, like my comment. I could have just had a thought, and continued on with my day.

I like this quote; Language, according to Lacan, is a process of speaking whereby one's history is made real.
