    Neither Aristotelian nor Russellian rules give the exact logic of any expression of ordinary language; for ordinary language has no exact logic.
    —Sir Peter Frederick Strawson (b. 1919)

    Where the Moosatockmaguntic
    Pours its waters in the Skuntic,
    Met, along the forest side
    Hiram Hover, Huldah Hyde.
    She, a maiden fair and dapper,
    He, a red-haired, stalwart trapper,
    Hunting beaver, mink, and skunk
    In the woodlands of Squeedunk.
    Bayard Taylor (1825–1878)
