The ancient languages are the scabbard which holds the mind's sword.

brevity

I have made this a long letter because I haven't the time to make it shorter.

— Blaise Pascal

diet

David Lee Roth's Diet:
On the road you have to avoid good foods at all costs. It's totally unavailable. What I do is eat a lot of greasy burgers and wash them down with anything with lots of sugar. Somebody took me to a health-food restaurant, and I got a big salad. I passed out halfway through. It took three chili dogs and a Snickers bar to revive me.

— Terry Atkinson, "Van Halen's Big Rock"

party

I had a party - only the Googlebot came.

— RF

taste

I am a man of simple tastes, easily satisfied with the best.

Growth and Economics

Our free-market economic model assumes constant growth, and our companies are happy to incorporate that model as a basic assumption. Almost every manager in a commercial enterprise is expected to grow revenues and profits.

language

History teaches us that a language may grow from obscure beginnings, reach an apex of strength, grace, and utility, and then suffer a long and sad process of decay. It happened to Hebrew, it happened to Greek, it happened to Latin; and it may happen to English.

— Philip Boswood Ballard, Teaching and Testing English 90 (1939)
