You can still see the text when using icons, by hovering the mouse over the icon. The appropriate help text will be displayed.

Show ToolTips on toolbars

Displays on-screen descriptions of toolbar buttons when the pointer pauses on them. However, even if this option is switched off, the description is displayed in the status bar at the bottom of the screen.

Delay opening of sub menus

Pauses before showing a sub-menu when you are navigating through a menu (used to avoid flickering sub-menus).
