Famous quotes containing the word vocabulary:

    “One forgets words as one forgets names. One’s vocabulary needs constant fertilizing or it will die.”
    —Evelyn Waugh (1903–1966)

    “[T]here is no breaking out of the intentional vocabulary by explaining its members in other terms.”
    —Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)

    “My vocabulary dwells deep in my mind and needs paper to wriggle out into the physical zone. Spontaneous eloquence seems to me a miracle. I have rewritten—often several times—every word I have ever published. My pencils outlast their erasers.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
