Famous quotes containing the words vocabulary and/or comparison:

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

    “When we reflect on our past sentiments and affections, our thought is a faithful mirror, and copies its objects truly; but the colours which it employs are faint and dull, in comparison of those in which our original perceptions were clothed.”
    —David Hume (1711–1776)
