Monday/etymology

Famous quotes containing the words monday and/or etymology:

    You’ve gotten in through the transom
    and you can’t get out
    till Monday morning or, worse,
    till the cops come.
    Philip Levine (b. 1928)

    The universal principle of etymology in all languages: words are carried over from bodies and from the properties of bodies to express the things of the mind and spirit. The order of ideas must follow the order of things.
    Giambattista Vico (1688–1744)
