They weaken when they are close together. They give strength when they are wide apart. An adjective habit, or a wordy, diffuse, flowery habit, once fastened upon a person, is as hard to get rid of as any other vice.

George CarlinWant of imagination makes things unreal enough to be destroyed. By imagination I mean knowledge and love. I mean compassion.
