Famous quotes containing the word meanings:

    You can’t write about people out of textbooks, and you can’t use jargon. You have to speak clearly and simply and purely in a language that a six-year-old child can understand; and yet have the meanings and the overtones of language, and the implications, that appeal to the highest intelligence.
    Katherine Anne Porter (1890–1980)

    Words differently arranged have a different meaning, and meanings differently arranged have different effects.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
