Learned Word Pairs

Famous quotes containing the words learned and/or word:

“A learned fool is more a fool than an ignorant fool.”
—Molière [Jean Baptiste Poquelin] (1622–1673)

“The word infant derives from Latin words meaning “not yet speaking.” It emphasizes what the child cannot do and reflects the baby’s total dependence on adults. The word toddler, however, demonstrates our change in perspective, for it focuses on the child’s increased mobility and burgeoning independence.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
