Famous quotes containing the word meanings:
“An amoeba is a formless thing which takes many shapes. It moves by thrusting out an arm, and flowing into the arm. It multiplies by pulling itself in two, without permanently diminishing the original. So with words. A meaning may develop on the periphery of the body of meanings associated with a word, and shortly this tentacle-meaning has grown to such proportions that it dwarfs all other meanings.”
—Charlton Laird (b. 1901)
“Well, slithy means lithe and slimy. Lithe is the same as active. You see, its like a portmanteauthere are two meanings packed up into one word.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (18321898)
