John Griogair Bell“The fact is that very few of us know what words mean; fewer still take the trouble to enquire. We calmly, we carelessly assume that our minds are identical with that of the writer, at least on that point; and then we wonder that there should be misunderstandings! The fact is (again!) that usually we don’t really want to know; it is so very much easier to drift down the river of discourse, ‘lazily, lazily, drowsily, drowsily, In the noonday sun.'”
