He is struggling against vagueness, against obscurity, against the lure of the decorative adjective, against the encroachment of Latin and Greek, and, above all, against the worn-out phrases and dead metaphors with which the language is cluttered up.”
—George Orwell (19031950)
“You can never really live anyone elses life, not even your childs. The influence you exert is through your own life, and what youve become yourself.”
—Eleanor Roosevelt (18841962)
