Famous quotes containing the words common and/or meanings:

    “We have almost succeeded in leveling all human activities to the common denominator of securing the necessities of life and providing for their abundance.”
    —Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)

    “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)
