    “Words can have no single fixed meaning. Like wayward electrons, they can spin away from their initial orbit and enter a wider magnetic field. No one owns them or has a proprietary right to dictate how they will be used.”
    —David Lehman (b. 1948)

    “Lay down, lay down the bigly bier,
    Lat me the dead look on;
    Wi’ cherry cheeks and ruby lips
    She lay an’ smil’d on him.

    O ae sheave o’ your bread, true-love,
    An’ ae glass o’ your wine,
    For I hae fasted for your sake
    These fully day [is] nine.”
    —Anna Gordon Brown (1747–1810)

    “When you model yourself on people, you should try to resemble their good sides.”
    —Molière [Jean Baptiste Poquelin] (1622–1673)
