Invasion/definition

Famous quotes containing the words invasion and/or definition:

“An invasion of armies can be resisted, but not the invasion of ideas.”

“The definition of good prose is proper words in their proper places; of good verse, the most proper words in their proper places. The propriety is in either case relative. The words in prose ought to express the intended meaning, and no more; if they attract attention to themselves, it is, in general, a fault.”
—Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
