Famous quotes containing the words hat and/or worn:
“Jargon is the verbal sleight of hand that makes the old hat seem newly fashionable; it gives an air of novelty and specious profundity to ideas that, if stated directly, would seem superficial, stale, frivolous, or false. The line between serious and spurious scholarship is an easy one to blur, with jargon on your side.”
—David Lehman (b. 1948)
“What we have worn out our iron-soled shoes searching for in vain may come to us without the slightest effort.”
—Chinese proverb.
