Astray, lost in the villages,
Mistrusted, spoken against,
Lovers of beauty, starved,
Thwarted with systems,
Helpless against the control;”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

“First it must be known that only a spoken word or a conventional sign is an equivocal or univocal term; therefore a mental content or concept is, strictly speaking, neither equivocal nor univocal.”
